The new showroom immerses Kimball International in Chicago\u2019s newest design district while creating one unified space to exhibit their broad portfolio of brands.<\/p>\n<p>The site is located on the 7th floor of 318 North Carpenter, a new construction concrete loft. With a clear, open floorplate, glazing on three sides, and a wraparound roof deck, the space steeps the occupant in the surrounding urban texture and blends interior and exterior.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-61862\" src=\"https:\/\/www.workdesign.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/1733_002.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1000\" height=\"668\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.workdesign.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/1733_002.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.workdesign.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/1733_002-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.workdesign.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/1733_002-768x513.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.workdesign.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/1733_002-696x465.jpg 696w, https:\/\/www.workdesign.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/1733_002-240x160.jpg 240w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The driving principle behind the design is a shift from seeing the \u201cshowroom\u201d as a place of exhibition to being a series of experiences. The showroom is reframed as a design consultancy, rather than a sales floor.<\/p>\n<p>A two-sided volume defines the center of the plan; hospitality bar on one side, design studio on the other. Visitors circulate around this central mass exploring different vignettes &#8211; lounge, collaboration, heads-down, wellness &#8211; while in constant dialogue with the outside. Bold, saturated colors and texture-rich materials create the feeling of a social space, rather than a museum of furniture.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-61868\" src=\"https:\/\/www.workdesign.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/1733_008.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1000\" height=\"668\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.workdesign.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/1733_008.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.workdesign.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/1733_008-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.workdesign.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/1733_008-768x513.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.workdesign.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/1733_008-696x465.jpg 696w, https:\/\/www.workdesign.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/1733_008-240x160.jpg 240w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2>Project Details<\/h2>\n<p>Kimball International\u2019s Chicago showroom was conceived with WELL standards in mind from the beginning. All of the major social and work spaces have direct access to natural light, while electric lighting is precisely zoned and controllable by the occupant for maximum comfort. Abundant plantings give freshness and delight to the air, while connecting the interior with the exterior. The roof deck is programmed with both active spaces for gaming as well as quiet, contemplative spaces to relax and experience the outside. A robust food service and prep kitchen area encourage mindful eating and food preparation and give ample space and facilities for the storage and preparation of healthy, home-prepared meals.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-61865\" src=\"https:\/\/www.workdesign.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/1733_005v2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1000\" height=\"702\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.workdesign.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/1733_005v2.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.workdesign.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/1733_005v2-300x211.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.workdesign.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/1733_005v2-768x539.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.workdesign.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/1733_005v2-696x489.jpg 696w, https:\/\/www.workdesign.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/1733_005v2-240x168.jpg 240w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Continuing the theme of the showroom as an extension of and connection point to the city, a bold, faceted portal with integrated lighting and plants frames the threshold condition between the public elevators and the showroom, creating a mental border between \u201cinside\u201d and \u201coutside\u201d in the interior of the space.<\/p>\n<p>Kimball International has a long history of partnering and foregrounding local artists in the cities where they have showrooms. In the Chicago showroom, Kimball International partnered with fiber artist <a href=\"http:\/\/www.windychien.com\/tvt6yfdkcg3k4zd1s63wistu8utsw9\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Windy Chien<\/a> to create a whimsical swagged light fixture (see below) over the serving bar.
