Welcome & Why You’re Here

Change is all around us. And it’s happening faster and faster.

ThinkLab, the research division of SANDOW Design Group, is the only research firm truly focused on the interiors industry. We’ve spent more than a decade (or collectively more than a century) formally studying the forces affecting our world, and implications for our partners.

Each year ThinkLab tackles the new year by looking at the 10 biggest shifts affecting the future of the contract interiors industry. Whether you are a design firm, manufacturer, distributor, or anything in between, this annual exploration summarizes leading indicators of where our collective world is headed, and how we can prepare our organizations to stay competitive for the future.

In this video course, Amanda Schneider, founder and President at ThinkLab alongside Erica Waayenberg, head of research and content development will be guiding you through the ten biggest shifts transforming our industry to help you rise up from daily task lists, think bigger, think differently, and most importantly: stay ahead. We’d like to personally invite you to connect with either of us on LinkedIn (Simply click here or here), and feel free to send us a direct message with any questions, comments, or even suggestions. We love this stuff.

Thanks for joining us; we’re glad you’re here.
