Experience Sandow Design Group’s DesignScene Lounge
In case you missed it at NeoCon this year, you can still explore SANDOW Design Group’s DesignScene lounge on DESIGNTV. Constructed on the 11th floor of The Mart during NeoCon 2025 in Chicago, the space featured a striking installation created by LightArt and Interior Design Editor-in-Chief Cindy Allen, showcasing everything from stackable light orbs to full-scale lamps, and even offering visitors the chance to create sculptures of light. With help from the partners at 3form, Momentum Textiles and Wallcovering, Bentley Mills, and Behr, the lounge was glowing with energy through countless talks, experiences, and activations. The locale also played host to the First NeoCon cohort and Metropolis’s Sustainability Lab, giving visitors a chance to discover the transformative power of design.
