Design Days 2023: Trending Products, Settings, and More
The products, settings, colors, and materials we saw on display at Fulton Market and Merchandise Mart showrooms this week.
Common Threads
Amongst the immaculate showcase of design, we noted several common threads between industry leaders from the MillerKnoll collective of brands.
Soft, Residential-Inspired Seating
Including several new releases from Herman Miller, Naughtone, DWR, Geiger, and an exciting archival re-release from Knoll.
Increased Flexibility, Usability
From stackables, nestables, moveables, and adjustables – and sometimes all of the above – products to support the autonomy of individuals and teams.
Acoustically-Balanced Space Division
Taking note from return-to-work experiences, purposefully designed (and intentionally divided) spaces to accommodate connectivity and enhance focus.
Bold Colors in Natural Settings
Designers have created visually-engaging spaces by adding deep, yet bold color to oceans of natural woods, stone, and earth tone finishes.
