For the past three years, Coverings has presented an Installation Design Showcase that demonstrates the mission of the event — to bring together the tile and stone industries, showing how these materials can transform both our living spaces and our world. The Showcase includes three different room settings that have been designed and are put together over the duration of the show. This year, one of the designers chosen for the challenge was Foreman Rogers, Senior Project Designer at tvsdesign in Atlanta, GA, who fit the bill with a hotel guestroom creation.
To begin the challenge, the chosen designers were given a 10- x 20-foot space to fill with their tile and/or stone designs. Installation began before the show, and continued for its duration. One day into construction, the show begins and turns the build into a demonstration for attendees of the convention. Throughout the installation, the installers and designs were present to answer questions.
