At NeoCon 2025, Smith System and Steelcase Learning unveiled their new permanent showroom at The Mart in Chicago (Suite 11-111), showcasing a unified vision for lifelong learning. The space featured thoughtfully designed environments for every stage of education—from early childhood to higher ed—demonstrating how flexible, human-centered furniture can support learning that evolves with the student. Guided tours, real-world layouts, and interactive product zones brought the concept to life, highlighting solutions grounded in research, movement, and engagement.

This collaborative showroom emphasized the power of adaptable design to foster curiosity, collaboration, and student success. By blending Steelcase Learning’s research-driven insights with Smith System’s expertise in K–12 environments, the space provided a holistic view of how purposeful environments can support learners at every step—inside and outside the classroom.
