NeoCon 2025: Stinson’s Collective Wins Gold
Stinson took home a Best of NeoCon Gold award in the textiles upholstery category for their collection entitled The Collective.


The Collective is clean-lined geometrics and multi-colored statements, a go-to choice for wherever the people “collective” may gather—offices, restaurants, theaters, and more.

The six patterns—Color Wheel, Digital, Bridge, Face Value, Blueprint, and Block Draw—explore form and texture through the world of color.
Color Wheel

Color Wheel moves and measures.


Some sections have minds of their own, breaking away and inverting themselves against the collective duty of color wheel standards.

This pattern seems to give pieces of the pie a joyful existence.
Blueprint

Blueprint is especially engaging.

This pattern, which comes in ten colors, reminds me of the time I went to a career fair for girls in middle school at a local university on a Saturday in the rain and the architect taught us how to draw a blueprint of our bedrooms. She showed us how to use curved lines, like those in Blueprint, to signify our doors and which way they opened.


It felt like we were learning code as she was teaching us this new language; we were giddy with our drawings.
Block Draw

Block Draw is another visually pleasing choice.

A tetris-like chevron pattern emerges when you zoom out, but up close these blocks in varying shades and textures seem to all be friendly and happy to stick close together.

The Collective is all made in the USA.
