Events & Happenings

This year, we brought movement, creativity, and connection to life through interactive experiences in our KI Inspiration Center and throughout Fulton Market.

Interactive Experience Art of Flow

Powered by patented Cognetic Technology™, the Art of Flow transformed seated movement into a one-of-a-kind Cognetograph, offering a visual expression of movement, flow, and the technology. The experience created a personalized visual pattern generated entirely through motion, meaning that no two were ever the same.

Street-Level Activation The Flow Chamber

The Flow Chamber served as a street-level retreat in the heart of Fulton Market, pairing lounge seating built with Cognetic Technology™, then relax outdoors with the Outspan outdoor collection, Byrne charging stations, refreshments, and a moment to recharge.
