the PRODUCTS SHAPING THE FUTURE OF DESIGN
NeoCon 2026 was a particularly meaningful moment for our studio. During this year’s event, Nina Magon was honored with the HiP Award for Designer’s Own Firm Leader by Interior Design magazine, a distinguished recognition celebrating vision, leadership, and innovation across the design industry. We are incredibly proud of this achievement and grateful to be recognized among the individuals and firms helping shape the future of design.
Beyond the award, this year’s show offered an inspiring perspective on the future of interiors. Across categories, many of the most compelling introductions shared a common focus: creating environments that support well-being, foster connection, and elevate the human experience.
From sculptural acoustic solutions and architectural surfaces to hospitality-inspired furnishings, these six standout products exemplify the thoughtful innovation shaping the next generation of design.

SOUNDFORM | ARKTURA
As lighting and acoustics become increasingly integral to the user experience, products that seamlessly combine both are gaining momentum. SoundForm by Arktura integrates acoustic performance with architectural illumination, transforming walls and ceilings into multifunctional design features. Rather than concealing technical requirements, the system elevates them, creating environments that feel quieter, more comfortable, and visually refined. The collection reflects a broader movement toward holistic design solutions that support wellness while enhancing the character of a space. (Photo courtesy of NeoCon)
CUSHION | TURF DESIGN
One of the most visually compelling introductions at NeoCon 2026, Cushion reimagines the acoustic partition as an architectural element. Rather than serving solely as a space divider, the system creates immersive environments through its rhythmic forms, sculptural presence, and ability to shape light and shadow. As designers continue seeking solutions that balance privacy, acoustics, and aesthetics, products like Cushion demonstrate how functional requirements can become meaningful design experiences.

ALMA Collection | WVH
Materiality continues to play an increasingly important role in shaping the character and experience of a space. The ALMA Collection by WVH transforms wall surfaces into architectural features through its rich texture, dimensionality, and refined detailing. Rather than serving as a backdrop, the collection introduces depth, rhythm, and visual interest that enhance the overall environment. As designers seek ways to create more immersive and tactile experiences, products like ALMA demonstrate how thoughtfully designed surfaces can contribute to both the aesthetic and emotional impact of a space.
LIMOUSINE | DARRAN
As the boundaries between hospitality, workplace, and residential design continue to blur, furnishings are increasingly expected to deliver both comfort and functionality. Limousine by DARRAN responds to this evolution with a collection that creates a sense of privacy and retreat while maintaining a refined, residential aesthetic. Its softly enveloping forms support focused work, informal meetings, and moments of pause, reflecting a broader industry movement toward environments that prioritize human experience, flexibility, and well-being.
vesper | halcon
Commercial spaces increasingly draw inspiration from residential interiors, emphasizing warmth, craftsmanship, and emotional connection. Vesper exemplifies this evolution through its refined detailing, residential sensibility, and ability to create environments that feel both sophisticated and approachable.
The most compelling introductions at NeoCon 2026 shared a common theme: designing for people. Whether through wellness-focused technology, immersive acoustics, tactile materiality, or hospitality-inspired comfort, these products reflect a future where performance and experience work hand in hand.
