Much more than just a manufacturer, Indiana Furniture is a pillar of the contract design industry and has been an integral partner in the evolution of office design since its founding over 100 years ago. Decade over decade, Indiana Furniture has stayed true to its belief that office furniture should not only be aesthetically beautiful and durable, but it should also serve the unique functionality needs of its clients. As these needs have evolved, Indiana Furniture has continued to evolve as well, creating innovative solutions that inspire design flexibility as well as solve critical functionality issues.

 

Indiana Furniture’s tradition of innovation is set to continue this year at NeoCon 2017, with the launch of several new lines and pieces that have been specifically created to work within the open office concept. They have incorporated solutions and design innovations that directly speak to several common issues created by the open office trend, such as privacy, mobility, flexibility and the need for increased collaboration space. They have further streamlined their focus to encompass eight specific elements of the office landscape and culture, including: greet, meet, gather, enhance, work, learn, team, and refuel.

These new product options in the Canvas line will focus on a need for flexibility and more options for the modern workplace. From private offices to collaborative spaces, these new pieces can evolve along with the needs of the client. *Gesso (Canvas’ sister line) will be launching its updated offerings at NeoCon East 2017.

Indiana Furniture will also be unveiling a sneak peak of the future at NeoCon 2017 with their innovative concept pieces thus far unnamed but referred to as “Bloxx.”

 

“Bloxx”: Bloxx is a concept based on 2’ x2’ Blocks that can be connected together to create a division of space. While in the prototypical stage, the showroom display at NeoCon will demonstrate its potential applications to create division in rooms, privacy or semi-privacy, and convenient collaborative work tools such as dry boards. Bloxx is intended to adapt and change if the office requirement changes.
