ATLANTA — Omnichannel retailer and furniture designer Ballard Designs opened its newest showroom in October in Columbus, Ohio. Located at 3883 Gramercy St., the showroom is located between Easton Loop West and Morse Crossing.
“We’ve wanted to open a retail location in Columbus for a long time,” said Dominic Milanese, vice president of retail for Ballard Designs. “Thanks to our website and catalog, Ballard already has a loyal following in this region, so when the opportunity came to design and build a gorgeous new store near the Easton shopping district, we jumped in.”
With more than 12,000 square feet, the light-filled showroom showcases its upscale home furnishings, interior décor, home accents and fully decorated room vignettes, and guests can schedule a complimentary appointment with an expert design consultant.
“For decorating lovers, our stores are like a playground,” Milanese said. “You can browse hundreds of designer fabrics, get inspired, and find the perfect gift for everyone on your holiday list. Our design consultants can help you with everything from choosing the right fabric to an entire home makeover.”
Ballard’s sister brand, Frontgate opens next door soon in this free-standing building, and there is dedicated, easy access parking is in front of each store.
Ballard Designs has operated a successful outlet store in West Chester Township, Ohio since 2000. The Columbus location is part of the 40-year-old brand’s ongoing retail expansion.
