The Thrill of Design Days in Chicago

Design Days + Design with Impact

We recently returned to Chicago for this year's Design Days, where we celebrated and discovered vibrant, creative, and innovative products. This year's event strongly focused on redefining the workplace, reflecting the evolving needs and aspirations of modern businesses. The importance of creating work environments that foster productivity, well-being, and creativity was evident as we explored cutting-edge solutions ranging from ergonomic furniture to advanced collaboration tools.

One of the highlights of Design Days was the unveiling of new and notable products that push the boundaries of design and functionality, such as the Cove Collection by Knoll and the Bay Work Pod by Herman Miller. These products often set the tone for future trends and innovations in the industry. Each item is meticulously crafted to meet the demands of contemporary workplaces, blending aesthetics with practicality.

Shaping Tomorrow with Future Design

Design Days also strongly emphasized the "Design with Impact" approach, highlighting sustainability and showcasing innovative methods prioritizing environmental responsibility. Exhibits dedicated to sustainable design featured products made from recycled materials, energy-efficient solutions, and designs that promote long-term use and minimal waste. These exhibits underscored the industry's commitment to reducing its carbon footprint and promoting eco-friendly practices. Additionally, we explored products currently being tested in labs, offering a glimpse into the future of design and technology. These experimental products often incorporate cutting-edge materials and technologies, promising to revolutionize how we live and work.

The MillerKnoll Collective's display at Design Days was a testament to their legacy of innovation and design excellence. Our team experienced a range of products embodying the collective's commitment to quality, functionality, and style. From iconic furniture pieces to contemporary office solutions, the collective showcased products that blend tradition with modernity, continuing to discover groundbreaking designs and foster creative collaborations.
