HASTINGS attends NeoCon2025

June 9-11, HASTINGS traveled to Chicago to attend NeoCon 2025—one of the commercial design industry’s most anticipated events. As always, the experience offered a powerful glimpse into what’s next for workplace, education, and hospitality interiors. We returned inspired by the thoughtful ideas being shared and the creative energy that filled every floor of The Mart. Along with NeoCon, our team members were also able to attend Chicago Design Days at Fulton Market. 

From sustainability and material innovation to inclusive design and workplace wellness, the themes this year felt especially aligned with our studio’s values and the work we’re doing across sectors. As we continue to explore new materials, technologies, and ideas, we’re grateful for opportunities like NeoCon and Design Days that challenge and expand our thinking. We’re excited to carry these conversations forward—into our work, our process, and the spaces we design.
