Art as Space: Designing a Future for People (Curator's Tour)

Join us for Art as Space, a special curation by Melissa Koury Curation at Goodmans Showroom that explores the inseparable connection between function and creativity. Through a thoughtfully selected collection of contemporary artworks, this exhibition mirrors Goodmans’ commitment to designing workspaces that foster innovation, culture, and well-being.

For over 70 years, Goodmans has been known for quality furniture and a personalized approach to service. After a break in their 12-year streak as one of the Valley’s “Best Places to Work,” the company set out to redefine the modern office experience. Through research interviews with their own employees, they identified key office values—Community, Fulfillment, Creativity, Health, and Connection—and transformed their showroom into a model of workplace excellence. Featuring designated spaces for collaboration and focus, a wellness room with infrared and sound therapy, a café lounge, an outdoor patio, and a design resource library, Goodmans has developed an environment that enhances both productivity and inspiration.

This exhibition is a reflection of those values, featuring works that complement the showroom’s redesign, art that is engaging yet meditative, vibrant yet functional, pushing the boundaries of what a workplace can be. More than a statement about the future of work, this curation is about shaping a future where spaces are intentionally designed to uplift, support, and inspire the people within them. We invite you to experience this dynamic fusion of art and design in a group tour where you can connect with fellow art lovers, creatives and professionals, and be part of a conversation about the future of human-centered spaces.
