A newly reconfigured and redesigned showroom provided attendees the opportunity to meet the NxtWall Senior Management Team and Lead Designers. This year, NxtWall incorporated strategic industry partnerships and showcased unique wall finishes representing the endless opportunities available with their Flex Series Demountable Wall System. Inside one of the featured rooms was a patina cork wall, allowing for an aesthetically pleasing and integrated form of a floor to ceiling communiqué. Another newly introduced room was a rotunda shaped seamless glass conference room. The conference room features a custom 3M Frosted Film supplied by Scott Moseley of Michigan Glass Coating which incorporated a graphic of the Chicago skyline with the NxtWall company logo. The 2016 NxtWall showroom also featured the Flex Series Demountable Wall System as a complete free standing room or standalone office with an integrated ceiling system, double pane glass door with a drop seal, sound damping panels, and sound masking technology supported by Soft DB.
Reduce, reuse and recycle
Three words that NxtWall stands for to better our planet and your company.

Staying true to the testament to the sustainability of the NxtWall products, 75% of the 2016 showroom was constructed with re-purposed framing and glazing components from previous years. In doing so, Nxtwall recycled the materials that were not used, and reduced waste by incorporating as much product into the new showroom design as possible while still presenting an entirely new layout, new functions and new features. This practice not only appeals to the green building industry and LEED projects it is also attractive to those of us who seek to keep a lean budget and reduced downtime in remodels. From the free standing office to the frosted film glass wall NxtWall’s showroom is a tribute to environmental stewardship and contemporary design.
Success in Collaboration
The NxtWall showroom left an impression on nearly 500 visitors!

NxtWall’s President Jerry Sweet “This was our busiest Design Expo showing to date, Dealers are recognizing increased opportunities by adding Demountable Walls to their Product offerings and are excited by our price point and accelerated lead times.” Ultimately, the showroom offered an inviting environment with a place to relax, escape the corporate chaos at Merchandise Mart and a calm and immersive spot for visitors to collaborate with other industry professionals. Although much talk centered around the quiet free standing office and the other featured demountable wall products in this year’s showroom, it was interesting to hear of the sizzling temperatures in Arizona, view pictures of the flooding in Houston, and gain informational traveling tips domestic and abroad.
President Jerry Sweet and Vice President Chris Palinski would like to thank all members, representatives and dealers for attending NxtWall’s showroom in the Kenzie Design Center. The company is excited to have presented another successful Design Expo!
