The NeoCon World's Trade Fair began yesterday, drawing over 40,000 visitors to fill the eighteen floors of the Merchandise Mart in Chicago. Attendees in search of the latest trends in carpet, tiles, furniture, and lighting were swarming the pristine showrooms of some of the biggest names in the architectural product industry.
