Last week was Neocon 2012, the largest architecture and design exposition and conference focusing on commercial, healthcare, hospitality and educational interiors. I was there talking with people about my designs for Tandus Flooring. On the 3rd day of the conference I got some time to wander the expo, meet up with old colleagues, and make some new friends.

Already, some of those new friendships are turning into creative partnerships. I’m talking with some great people about getting my designs on their PVC-free synthetic leather (durable, attractive and environmentally friendly!). And I’ve started sketches for an innovative collaboration involving signage. Also in the works are potential projects with a glassware company and a furniture manufacturer.

I can’t wait to see each of these new relationships grow and become fully realized!
