Show-Offs
Showroom design is as important as the design within the showroom, as Keilhauer, SKS Kitchens, and Momentum, prove.
SKS, the luxury home appliance brand backed by global innovator LG Electronics, introduces its new showroom at THE MART, designed by world-renowned architect and Interior Design Hall of Fame inductee Piero Lissoni. The 9,000-square-foot space creates an inspiration showcase for the brand’s trademarked Technicurean Living and marks a significant new chapter for SKS: fully tailored kitchens, including dramatic 20-foot islands and more than 50 SKS appliances, from pro-ranges with built-in sous vide to advanced induction and smart refrigeration, all designed for precision and versatility.
Momentum’s new showroom concept, Shaped by Many, reimagines the commercial showroom as an immersive environment centered on craft, culture, and community. Inspired by the “Kintentional” design movement, the showroom is organized into six distinct neighborhoods that explore how sound, movement, materiality, and color shape human connection and well-being. Through layered compositions of textiles, wallcoverings, acoustics, and architectural systems, the showroom creates a series of experiential spaces, including a hi-fi lounge, sound bar, and a med spa-inspired area, telling collective stories while reflecting Momentum’s evolution into a comprehensive interiors solutions provider.
Keilhauer has expanded its presence at THE MART with its newly designed, 13,000-square-foot showroom featuring new and ongoing commercial furniture collections, including the debut of Etta, designed by Yabu Pushelberg. The new showroom has as its theme “Translating Design Intent through Light,” and centers around a visitor experience enhanced by the award-winning lighting design of David B. Seide, of Defined Space Inc. The project was a collaboration between the team at Keilhauer, Defined Space, Bushman Construction, and the architects and interior designers at LG2 Montreal and ZWA Chicago. Introduced at NeoCon 2026, Seide presented his concept, “Lighting as the Silent Collaborator in the Design Experience,” and the showroom affords visitors the opportunity to experience the importance of lighting in person.
