The 170,000 square-foot store in the retailer’s hometown of Denver will feature 30 manufacturer’s galleries, including upper-end lines Marge Carson, Christopher Guy, Baker, Hancock & Moore, and Bernhardt.
The grand opening festivities will begin with a 10 a.m. ribbon-cutting. Adele Arakawa, The Showroom @Furniture Row’s new brand ambassador, will welcome attendees, who will also hear from store designer and trend specialist Connie Post, as well as lead gallery buyer Amy Foster.
“We love Denver and are excited about the prospect of building upon the relationship that we have enjoyed with the city for decades,” states Foster. “The grand opening will provide attendees the opportunity to celebrate the culmination of a lot of hard work and experience a truly one-of-a-kind shopping experience.”
The store will also house an extensive design library with adjacent workspaces. An area affectionately known as the Pink Palace will offer dining and lounging as well as boutique-style shopping for designer jewelry, clothing, and accessories.
Another area called the Retreat will find a cinema, game tables, snack bar, and a display about Furniture Row’s NASCAR sponsorship.
Erik Jones, driver of the #77 Toyota Camry for Furniture Row Racing will be on hand for photo opportunities and an autograph signing alongside several race cars featured on the showroom floor.
