    On Friday, June 26, join me and the LIFE Committee of Core's Buildings & Operations Section at a full day private showroom tour through two of Chicago's most important design districts. The morning starts at the Merchandise Mart with visits to Interface, Arcadia, Haworth, and BuzziSpace. Lunch is at the Agati Showroom and Furniture Lab, where you can see Agati, Inc's library collections and talk shop with our design team. The afternoon moves to Fulton Market for JSI, Humanscale, KI, OFS, and MillerKnoll.

    At every stop, manufacturer reps walk you through their latest products, discuss real library applications, and answer your questions directly. You will get to see the materials, sit in the furniture, and leave with knowledge you cannot get from a spec sheet.

    This is for anyone planning a renovation, evaluating vendors, or passionate about how great library spaces come together.

    Seats are limited. Register Today.
