Humanscale, a global leader in the design of workplace furniture, is thrilled to announce its experiential pop-up showroom in Fulton Market. Serving as the preview for Humanscale’s new permanent purpose-built Chicago showroom (coming in 2023), this temporary exhibit will be open on June 13 and will stay open throughout June.

The space is located in the heart of Fulton Market, one of Chicago’s flourishing design communities, adjacent to the Emily Hotel. The pop-up will showcase Humanscale’s leadership across sustainability and design excellence to customers, media, and guests. To celebrate this moment, a series of special programming will take place from June 13-15, led by Humanscale Founder and CEO Bob King, Chief Sustainability Officer Jane Abernethy, and Design Partner & Path Designer Todd Bracher.

On Monday, June 13, the brand is hosting a party to celebrate and foster conversations around sustainable design. The following day, Alex Muller of Mindful Materials and Humanscale Chief Sustainability Officer Jane Abernethy will explore the consequences of greenwashing and how the industry can specify truly sustainable products. The talk will take place at the pop-up from 10:00-11:00 AM CT.

The pop-up experience will allow visitors to explore Humanscale’s full suite of offerings, from the iconic Freedom Headrest to the new Path task chair; the most sustainable task chair in the world and a 2022 winner of the iF Design Award to its sit/stand solutions, monitor arms, and ergonomic office tools. The exhibit will feature interactive displays that explore the brand’s planet positive achievements and material innovations. The products will be shown in various work vignettes, from conference and executive rooms to ancillary, multipurpose and collaborative spaces to the home office setting.
