Our Boldest NeoCon Yet

Designing with Joy, Emotion, and Sustainability

NeoCon 2024 was a core memory and major milestone for Momentum. In a world leaning towards neutrals and minimalist aesthetics, we decided to take a bold leap into maximalism and color. As Maya Angelou once said, "People will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel."

We too embraced the power of feelings and the transformative effect our products have on people and the places and spaces they occupy; we chose joy, emotion, and playful design, all while driving our commitment to sustainability. Our vibrant showroom at THE MART showcased this vision, earning widespread acclaim and awards, and showed how impactful our collaboration with the groundbreaking British-Nigerian artist Yinka Ilori was.

The Power of Color & Emotion
Our showroom at THE MART was a vibrant display of color and creativity. We believe design should evoke emotions and create joyful experiences, transforming environments and uplifting moods.

Celebrating a Creative Collaboration with Yinka Ilori

The heart and soul of our NeoCon 2024 showcase was undeniably Yinka Ilori.

Renowned for his vibrant and playful patterns, Yinka infused our showroom with an infectious energy that captivated all who entered. His creative vision transformed our space into an immersive experience, filled with color, joy, and a sense of wonder.

This collaboration inspired us to "reach for the sky" and explore the boundaries of aesthetics and innovation. Our partnership with Yinka is more than just a collaboration; it's a testament to the universal power of design to create spaces that feel alive and empower our moods and time together.
