Light-filled and gallery-like, the new Designtex showroom offers a minimal backdrop for a vibrant mix of material displays - rich in color, texture, and tactility. Subtle architectural edits and thoughtful additions emphasize the building’s original concrete structure, enhancing the sense of openness and clarity within the space. Framed by expansive windows that overlook Chicago’s Fulton Market district, the showroom becomes a quietly inspiring environment for the design community to gather, explore materials, attend events, and discover the perfect selections for their projects.
