With a background in fine art, Ann Monroe is the owner of a showroom at the Ohio Design Centre in Beachwood, Ohio. Ann represents various manufacturers and displays samples of their products. In her showroom, one can sit in a chair, feel the texture of a fabric or see the finish on a custom table.
In this episode, you will discover how she works with designers and clients tocreate a personalized custom design, as well as the changes she has seen in the industry, and how she gets energized at the Furniture Market in High Point, North Carolina.
Originally, Ann had no specific plans for a career in the business of interior furnishings. She worked in her brother in-law’s showroom for 15 years, though, and learned a great deal about fine fabrics and wall-coverings, custom upholstered furniture and case goods, and unique accessories. When he decided to sell his business, she “went for it” and became the owner of a showroom at the Ohio Design Centre in Beachwood, Ohio.
