SOURCE CHICAGO SHOWROOM
The Merchandise Mart
3,500 sqft
Source International specializes in creating well-designed contract seating at a user-friendly price point. They are constantly striving to improve their level of design and quality, and wanted a space to show their products in high-end finishes.
They wanted the showroom to be a warm, inviting space that would be a hub for both designers and sales reps.
Adaptable Event Space
The ability to host different types of events within the space was crucial. We used a black metal divider screen with large curved openings to divide the space while still keeping an open, inviting feel.
We created a space that feels like a high end hospitality experience, with various zones that can host meetings and casual conversations. The soft neutral palette contrasts with the black metal mesh in the space and provides a striking backdrop for the furniture. The pedestal display at the front of the showroom gives an art gallery-like feel and also provides customers a close up look at the quality of the chairs.
