Welcome
Say Hello To The Inspired Home Show!
FORMERLY KNOWN AS THE INTERNATIONAL HOME + HOUSEWARES SHOW
The way that consumers shop and buy has changed. No longer content to purchase individual products based only on price and functionality, consumers are creating lifestyles that reflect their individuality, where they can find joy, contentment and fulfillment.
The Inspired Home Show (previously the International Home + Housewares Show) connects not only buyer to seller but also product to lifestyle, and the housewares industry to the consumer mindset. While in Chicago successful retailers and manufacturers bring individual products and display elements together to create inspiring environments that drive sales.
