West Elm Workspace was all the buzz at this year’s  Neocon, the world’s premier show and networking event for the commercial design industry.  Neocon is a great opportunity for contract furniture manufacturers and others to showcase new products, designs and innovations they are working on releasing in the next few months or so.  Each industry leader creates a showroom that features all of their new products and West Elm Workspace went all out.  They used their “unoffice the office” theme as inspiration to focus on humanizing the workspace with flexible and meaningful additions to their line.  And who could do that better than West Elm , a brand of Williams-Sonoma, Inc. that focuses on supplying its customer base with modern design, affordability and community.

West Elm Workspace was awarded Gold in Furniture Systems and Silver in Furniture Benching for their new Conduit Benching System that will also be available with height adjustable work surfaces.  Conduit is a collaboration with world-renowned design firm  Gensler.  Conduit is an office system that provides integrated power distribution and space planning flexibility to create different work zones from individual workstations to meeting tables. From shelves to coat racks to privacy screens, accessories can conveniently be integrated to the system for employee workspace personalization.

Also at Neocon this year, The Parasol Meeting Table was a HiP 2017 Winner for Workplace: Tables from Interior Design Magazine which honors industry people and innovative products.  The Parasol Meeting Table uses light as a boundary to define its space, providing the same benefits and functions of an enclosed meeting area with the absence of walled-in meeting rooms. It comfortably seats up to six people and includes integrated power distribution.

Many other new products were showcased at Neocon by West Elm Workspace, including the Industrial Haus or the Modern Haus private workspace options for companies who use the open plan office concept.  Haus offers varying levels of visual and acoustic privacy in many configurations that offer employees a space for solo work or small group collaboration.  Other introductions included various meeting tables, lounge seating, guest seating, conference seating, task seating, stools, task lighting, and a media presentation board.  The full line of new products can be viewed at westelmworkspace.com or in the gallery below.  Just click on each picture for a better view.  Explore what’s new and humanize your workspace!
