Juniper Recharge Lounge
An ICFF addition, the Juniper Recharge Lounge—furnished in partnership with HBF + HBF Textiles—is a central space to pause, work, and connect. Open to all attendees, the lounge offers a place to recharge devices using Juniper’s Ground Control power systems, while surrounded by the ambiance of the Multiverse lighting collection. It is designed for relaxing, casual meetings, and experiencing these products in the environments where they are most often used: hospitality and amenity spaces.
Thoughtfully conceived to be both practical and inspiring, the lounge will also host a series of talks and panels focused on lighting design, business strategy, and industry collaboration, led by Juniper executives and select partners. In a sophisticated and serene setting, guests will recharge not only their devices, but also their well-being, finding comfortable moments in HBF occasional tables and seating.
