“Palecek and Phillips Collection are well respected for their stylish products, high design showrooms, and excellent customer service,” said Cindy Morris, president and CEO of Dallas Market Center. “The addition of these two important companies continues our marketplace momentum of setting a new standard in sophisticated building re-design and business innovation by creating a destination with ground floor, controlled access showrooms for the design community.”
