Not only will you find specification reports for 2020 in 45 categories of furniture, flooring, architectural finishes, and textiles, but also extensive editorial focused on how A/D has been affected by and responded to the challenges of the pandemic:
- Which product categories performed well in 2020 and which did not
- How manufacturers reacted to the sudden demand for work-at-home furnishings
- Whether soft or solid flooring is better suited for virus protection
- Why mid-sized companies showed a trend toward rising specs
- Why cable and data infrastructure is a fundamental component of safe return
- The rise (and leveling of off) space dividers, desk screens, and mobile partitions
