Designed in conjunction with Perkins+Will | Eva Maddox Branded Environments, the new state-of-the-art Calgary Showroom and Learning Center offers a unique, immersive and educational experience. A renovation of Haworth's existing two-story office and showroom, the Haworth Sustainability Knowledge Centre updates the existing showroom space and provides new accommodations for education about Haworth’s sustainable initiatives in design and manufacturing.

The showroom focuses on the environmental benefits of wood products and modular interiors, both of which are manufactured in the adjoining factory. A freestanding storey wood wall in the lobby showcases reclaimed white oak as a backdrop for the reception desk. The 5,700 sf sustainability exhibit on the second floor is built primarily from Haworth modular walls and features four spaces: the Refresh and Wood Salon, an informal gathering space with Douglas Fir furniture by Vancouver designer Brent Comber; the Sustainable Construction Lab, which showcases the advantages of building with modular wall and floor systems; the Modular Planning Lab, which compares the flexibility of modular interiors to conventional construction; and the Multi-Communications Room, a state-of-the-art meeting space with smart boards, teleconferencing and flexible seating, promoting the advantages of Haworth's sustainable product line.

Sensitive landscaping, passive design strategies, low-emitting materials, and the diversion of 95% of construction waste from the landfill will help the building achieve a LEED Gold rating.
