Materials Pavilion at NeoCon

Reading Time: 4 minutes

Celebrating Twelve Years at NeoCon with this Popular Materials Playground!

Over 2,000 visitors got their material fix at the 2018 Pavilion

Bigger and more beautiful than ever, the Materials Pavilion at NeoCon 2018 sported a new look, and a new partner for our curated materials section – the Illinois Institute of Art -Chicago.

Our formula for creating an educational, experiential environment for research and inspiration has proven popular, and over the last twelve years the Pavilion has become one of the busiest spots at NeoCon.

This year was no different. Special thanks go out to our premium sponsors, and to NeoCon’s management team for helping us make this the most gorgeous Pavilion yet. 

The Materials Pavilion at NeoCon is a partnership between interiors + sources magazine and Material Intelligence.
