The space is developed in collaboration with the Finishes and Interiors Sector (FIS) to support both structured conference activity and informal interaction throughout the show. The space combines circular design with conference functionality and the comfort of a modern workplace environment. The main seating area incorporates a variety of options — from high-end chairs and upholstered stools to meeting room and stacking chairs — softening the feel of a traditional conference layout while meeting headcount and practical requirements.

Sustainability through Continu

The entire conference space is furnished with quality used items curated through our Continu approach, saving an estimated 3.4 tonnes of embodied CO₂e. By choosing high-quality reused furniture, we aim to illustrate how thoughtful reuse can create a workspace that is comfortable, design-led, and sustainable without compromise.

Industry Collaboration

In addition to the main conference area, we have collaborated with Workstories to introduce two dedicated informal meeting areas. These flexible zones provide the FIS and conference attendees with spaces for breakout conversations, networking, and multi-use activity throughout the two-day event.

We look forward to seeing the space brought to life by the FIS community throughout the show.

Thought Leadership: Making Sustainability Your Superpower

We are also delighted to announce that Broadbase Director, Georgina Smith, will be taking to the stage for the show’s opening session.

Georgina will join the panel for ‘Making Sustainability Your Superpower – discussing a value-based approach’, where she will share her insights on the value of reuse in commercial interior projects. Drawing on a real-world example of a sustainable furniture strategy, Georgina will discuss how blending quality used and refurbished pieces with new requirements creates spaces that are both environmentally responsible and commercially viable.
