noHma is bringing a single, one of one mobile bar cart called the CHAMBRE to BDNY 2026, the hospitality design trade show running November 8 and 9 at the Javits Center in New York..

The cart was designed and built entirely on its own. Only after it was finished did the noHma team come across Hotel Josefine in Vienna and realize the two shared nearly the same material palette, without either side ever referencing the other.

What the CHAMBRE is made of

• Structure. Light grey HDPE core on an aluminum frame, built for daily foodservice use.
• Countertop. Neolith Amazonico sintered stone, a deep jewel toned green with natural veining, sourced through Evolv Surfaces and fabricated by Trio Surfaces, both based in the Seattle area.
• Facade. A one inch half round wood tambour, velvet wrapped over water resistant MDF with a moisture wicking backer.
• Canopy. Bordeaux velvet dome from Elastron Group's Paris collection, open weave cane lattice, bordeaux bullion fringe with cream tassel drops, champagne gimp trim, and a hidden vintage botanical lining.
• Accents. Champagne brushed aluminum trim throughout, with a solid walnut accent pole.
• Mobility. Four commercial castors rated 500 pounds each, two swivel and two static, with matched metallic hub covers.
• Lighting. Three EmeryAllen dim to warm fixtures on a single switch.

The Hotel Josefine coincidence

Six materials lined up almost exactly between the cart and the hotel.

• Bordeaux velvet, on Josefine's curtains and seating, matching the CHAMBRE's facade and canopy
• A dark veined green stone, on Josefine's bar, matching the countertop
• Champagne brass, on Josefine's fixtures, matching the cart's framing
  
• Open weave cane, on Josefine's headboards, matching the canopy lattice
• Bordeaux bullion fringe with cream tassels, on Josefine's lampshades, nearly identical to the canopy edge
• Walnut tones, throughout Josefine's millwork, matching the accent pole

Why it matters at BDNY

For hotel owners, brand teams, and designers walking the BDNY floor, the CHAMBRE is a guest facing revenue moment for lobby, pool deck, or rooftop space that would otherwise sit unused, positioned as a capital purchase rather than an operating cost. The Josefine overlap is a good story. The revenue case is why a property actually buys it.
