Partner & Project Timelines
Why Early Partnership Matters
Products are designed in during preconstruction — long-lead items must be ordered early. Once a category is designed in, it’s closed.
CLOSES NOV 30, 2026
Phase One Outdoor + Long Lead Items
Every-episode categories and all outdoor categories.
CLOSES FEB 28, 2027
Phase Two Interior
Kitchen, bath, lighting, appliances, and interior finishes.
2026 budget to place, or planning for 2027 – either way, the best categories fill first.
