Interior Design Firm Opens Burr Ridge Showroom

BURR RIDGE, IL — Full-service interior design firm The Design Bar has announced the opening of its new 7,000-square-foot retail showroom in the Burr Ridge Village Center in Burr Ridge. According to the business, the showroom includes kitchen and bathroom vignettes, lighting, bedding, home decor and accessories.

The expanded showroom is located in Burr Ridge Village Center at 880 Village Center Drive, which is down the street from its old, smaller storefront.

“For years, our customers have been telling us it’s so fun and rare to work with an interior designer that also has a retail showroom open to the public,” Leslie Bowman, founder and design director of The Design Bar, said in a release. “They love that whether they want to tap our services for a whole home remodel, re-freshen just one room, or simply need a special gift or stylish home accessory they could stop by our store and find exactly what they want. The only wrinkle was we didn’t have enough space to showcase everything."

In creating her firm and its new retail showroom, Bowman envisioned a seamless process in the top-to-bottom design of a home where clients can select everything they need to furnish and decorate their home under one roof.
