ROOMS with A VIEW (RWAV) is the premier design event in Fairfield County created by the Dean Of American Design, Mr. Albert Hadley and now with Honorary Chairman, Thom Filicia. Each year, 12 designers are invited to create 6’ x 8' vignettes. These mini-rooms (8-foot ceilings and three walls) are staged in the library and great hall of the historic, stone, Gothic Revival style Southport Congregational Church in Southport, CT. RWAV is unique in that it is not a showcase in the traditional sense. It is a sound bite version of a designer show house. The designers are challenged to get an idea across in a small amount of space.
