The Chicago-area design community got together to attend the launch of InspireDesign: A Sensory Experience, held last month at the Art Institute of Chicago. Sister publication Hotel Business Design partnered with SONNY+ASH and The Gettys Group—and sponsors KB Contract, MDC and United Furniture & Seating—to bring virtual and augmented reality to life with hands-on demonstrations.
