Introducing the Science Scouts
at HPMKT this October
to Spotlight Health-Driven Design at October High Point Market
Science in Design® will debut the Science Scouts Program at the October High Point Market, recognizing manufacturers whose products support healthier, more restorative living environments.
A team of 11 Science in Design®-certified professionals will explore High Point Market to identify furnishings, lighting, accessories, textiles, and other products that exemplify the principles of neuroaesthetics and biophilic design.
Before Market, the Science Scouts will establish a standardized evaluation framework grounded in scientific research. During Market, products meeting the criteria will receive the official Science in Design Recommended designation, displayed within participating exhibitors’ showrooms. Selected products will also be professionally photographed and featured in post-Market marketing, educational programs, and industry communications.
The Science Scouts Program is designed to become a recurring feature of future High Point Markets, creating an ongoing platform to celebrate innovation at the intersection of design, science, and human health.Manufacturers and exhibitors interested in having their products considered for Science in Design® Recommended recognition are encouraged to contact Science in Design® prior to Market.
