AdHoc, the German lifestyle label recognized for contemporary kitchen and home essentials, is staging a U.S. relaunch with a refreshed brand direction and product lineup, set to be unveiled at the Shoppe Object trade show in New York City from August 2–4, 2026. Parent company DK Household Brands says the move introduces a new global identity, Love the Way You Live, reflecting a focus on everyday rituals at home.
The relaunch zeroes in on design that marries clean lines with practicality—an approach the brand says is inspired by European architecture, interiors and contemporary living. AdHoc’s collection aims to bring together precision engineering and understated style, with items positioned to function as well as they look, according to the company.
“We believe that beautiful design has the power to transform everyday moments,” said Julia Beck, Global Head of Product & Marketing for AdHoc. “Whether it’s your first coffee in the morning or dinner with friends, these are the moments that make a house feel like home.”
For design lovers and retailers, Shoppe Object is the first chance to see the updated assortment in person. Organizers describe the event as an influential marketplace for independent and premium brands. AdHoc’s team positions the new chapter as an answer to consumers who want pieces that express personal style while delivering durable performance.
“U.S. consumers are increasingly seeking products that go beyond utility,” said Yolanda Vilchez, Head of Marketing, DK Household Brands, USA. “They look for things that reflect and elevate their unique personal style and deliver lasting quality.”

AdHoc has been in the design space since 1995, and this iteration of the brand underscores a long-standing European design ethos: smart functionality wrapped in pared-back forms. The company describes the collection as a way to bring lasting enjoyment into daily routines, with an eye to pieces that can live on the counter, not just in the drawer.
For Canadian readers tracking what’s next in kitchen and home, U.S. relaunches at major shows often foreshadow what will trend north of the border—especially when they spotlight intelligent design and quality builds. While specific product details and prices were not disclosed, the focus signals more than a cosmetic refresh. It’s a statement about how we live now: smaller moments, better made.
AdHoc’s team frames this debut as the start of its next chapter in North America. Retailers and design insiders attending Shoppe Object will get the first look; everyone else can watch for the brand’s updated look and products as they begin to filter into the marketplace following the show. If your taste leans modern, tactile and purposeful, this is one to keep on your radar.
