The new Tollgard Design Group showrooms at Grosvenor Waterside opened their doors last night as Staffan and Monique launched a new phase for the design group and a new light 'Belle' designed for Contardi by Staffan.
The showrooms host a wonderful collection of furniture and materials expressed across room sets though double and single height spaces. The materials and finishes are sophisticated and juxtapose reclaimed wood, (beautiful grey weathered boards), with sleek stone, brushed metal with fine plaster surfaces, leather, wool and a great selection of accessories and artwork.
The design studio overlooks the showroom from a wonderful mezzanine level which will be staffed by many Inchbald graduates who it has been my privilege to teach - it was great to see them all so excited about this new phase for the company.
Congratulations to all.
