A furniture showroom becomes the coolest place in town. This exclusive representative for Herman Miller furniture purchased a dilapidated two-story warehouse in a revitalized area of downtown Nashville. Tasked with turning the building into a modern, trendy showroom worthy of the company's high-end commercial furniture line, the GS&P design team provided minor exterior and extensive interior renovations.

Making use of the building's existing structural elements, the interior was opened up from the ground floor to the ceiling girders. Heating and air conditioning ducts and masonry walls remain exposed. Light from windows punched through exterior walls floods every corner of the showroom and provides views of the Nashville skyline. The finished space is also as green as it is stunning. Demountable wall systems, use of regional materials, recycled content products and energy efficient equipment and appliances were used throughout.
