This year’s CMF Training Workshop blends foundational insights with advanced strategies, showcasing how material-led design is driving innovation across products, interiors, and furniture. As consumers increasingly seek stories, emotion, and meaning in design, materials have become the narrative—the bridge between concept and connection. Join Chris as he shares exclusive, hands-on methods used by global leaders like Google, TCL, and Hyundai Elevator, helping you elevate your creative process and deliver design that truly resonates. Discover the power of CMF. Design with purpose. Inspire with materials.
