U.K.-Based Hardwood Firm Havwoods Opens NYC Showroom
New York, NY, September 27, 2017-Hardwood flooring company Havwoods International has officially arrived in North America.
The London-based company is excited to announce its expansion with the opening of a showroom in New York City. Located in the Flatiron District, the new showroom will accommodate the brand’s growing U.S.-based clientele while allowing them to further expand its project portfolio in the North American market.
Founded in Great Britain more than 40 years ago, Havwoods offers wood flooring and wall cladding for the commercial, hospitality, retail and residential markets. Havwoods holds over 200 wood flooring products in stock and showrooms in London, Berlin, Sydney, Rome, Melbourne and now New York City and Maryland.
Brinkworth, a London-based architecture and interior design firm, conceived the design of the New York showroom, creating an airy and refined space with abundant light and an open studio. The single-story showroom provides long presentation tables topped with a curated selection of timber samples, all set flush within black steel frames. The tables offer wide, slender display drawers beneath-clad in gleaming brushed brass, which effortlessly present the extensive Havwoods selection of styles and finishes. A space at the end of one table is available for customers to view the timbers under controlled light settings that imitate various interior lighting scenarios. Here, they can also create ad hoc sample boards to combine the timbers with other materials and finishes.
The showroom is located on 155 West 18th Street and is open Monday through Friday from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.
