With less than 3 weeks until the IIDA New England Fashion Show, we are feverishly working to finish all of our outfits, making them spectacular, over the top, couture creations! This year, PAYETTE has partnered with Office Resources, Knoll and Forbo to create our entry for this year’s show, where the theme is “Ritual”. We’re using some wild materials, including upholstery fabric, wall covering, wood veneer, laminate, linoleum, electrical wire from powered furniture panels, and so much more.
Take a look at some of our process pictures below, and see the real thing on October 12. If you don’t have tickets to the sold-out event, you can watch the Livestream. And don’t forget to vote for your favorite entry in the People’s Choice category! See you on the runway!
We are honored to share PAYETTE has received two 2026 Green Good Design Awards from The European Centre for Architecture Art Design and Urban Studies—Land’s Sake Farm and The Ragon Institute of Mass General, MIT, and Harvard.
“Green GOOD DESIGN identifies and emphasizes the world’s most important examples of sustainable design and works to develop a public awareness program that informs the general public about which global companies are doing the best job in ecological and sustainable design for our world. Architecture, landscape architecture, urban planning projects, as well as product, packaging, and graphic design projects from over 30 nations were honored with the 2026 Green GOOD DESIGN Award.”
