    Alfred Williams & Company Showroom


    Comment on Facebook

    Alfred Williams & Company, the exclusive representative for Herman Miller in Nashville, Tennessee, had run out of space in an unimpressive office building in the Gulch, a formerly seedy area in downtown that is quickly being revitalized. The company wanted to stay in the area, and purchased a two-story warehouse that had been badly renovated and expanded a number of times in its 75-plus years. The original project intent was to use most of the existing shell, but plans to gut it and build anew on the “good bones” had to be rethought when it was revealed that most of the bones weren’t very good.

    Tasked with renovating the building into a modern, trendy showroom and office worthy of the company’s high-end commercial furniture line, the GS&P interior design team, led by Jack Weber, IIDA, decided almost immediately that it would be much more dynamic as a two-story open space. The team envisioned being able to view the furniture from above, on catwalks or mezzanines and from below. They saw spaces in which people had room to walk around the furniture and view it from different angles, space for design firms to hold planning meetings with clients and spaces large enough to host design industry events like cocktail parties, seminars and educational classes.
