How would you describe your design style?
Our style is current and relevant to our client’s personality. We don’t put ourselves in a box of traditional, transitional, or contemporary design, rather we design based on what works best for our clients and their preferences.
What sets you apart from the competition?
Experience; I’ve been doing this for 40 years and been at the forefront of new products and design trends coming in my entire career. With a 25,000-square-foot showroom, our clients love the fact that they are able see and try the products our team is suggesting for their project. When you walk through the doors, you can see our design style and easily make a judgment of whether our design style may suit you or not. Some designers can only offer photos, but in the Britt Carter showroom, you are able to feel, touch, and sit upon the upholstery that may be included in your potential project. We are also able to keep our pricing competitive because we work directly with the factory and don’t have to go through a third party such as the merchandise mart.
Most looking forward to 2023?
Moving forward with new clientele and new projects; 2022 was an amazing year filled with excited clients and we’re looking forward to more of the same in 2023.
