The American Society of Interior Designers (ASID) has launched a Material ConneXion Library at the Society’s new corporate headquarters in Washington, DC, designed by Perkins+Will. The library, launched in partnership with the American Chemistry Council, features more than 300 samples to aid __design professionals in specifying healthy materials in the built environment.
The new library is segmented into eight categories including polymers, process, naturals, metals, carbon-based, ceramics, and glass. “The key aspect was offering a selection of materials beyond the standard palette for interior __design that could promote a healthier interior environment,” says Andrew Dent, vice president of library and materials research at Material ConneXion.
