WZMH Principals Nicola Casciato and Supreet Barhay delivered the keynote presentation at this year’s Interior Design Show, joined by Alison McNeil and moderated by Peter Sobchak. The session, “Destinations, Not Desks: Reimagining Workplaces for a Generation That Needs a Reason to Return,” explored how offices are shifting from functional spaces to meaningful destinations.

During the Q&A, the conversation turned to how organizations can genuinely attract and retain a younger workforce through workplace design. The panel responded enthusiastically, engaging with ideas that challenge traditional notions of work and reinforce the power of authentic, purpose-driven design.

Thank you to The Interior Design Show for the opportunity to share these conversations on such a dynamic stage.

WZMH Architects was pleased to welcome Starlight Investments to the firm’s office for a presentation and tour of the sparkbird lab. With a strong history of past and ongoing collaborations, the visit provided a valuable opportunity to advance shared discussions around innovation, sustainability, and the evolving future of the built environment.

Led by WZMH Principals, Len Abelman and Zenon Radewych, the WZMH team presented key Sparkbird initiatives, including Speedstac and the DC Residential Suite of the Future, highlighting scalable and sustainable approaches to design and development. Applications including PARRiT and AiM from the firm’s software startup, Giraffe Apps Inc. were introduced, with discussions focused on how these tools support more informed, data-driven decision-making throughout the design process.

The Starlight team toured the lab and engaged in thoughtful discussions around each of the tools presented, fostering a meaningful exchange of ideas. WZMH looks forward to continued collaboration with Starlight Investments and future opportunities ahead.
