There’s no two without three

The opening of the showroom in the Fulton Market district in Chicago represents for Arper the third exhibition space in the United States, with locations already present in Los Angeles and New York, in addition to the production site active since 2014 in High Point, North Carolina

With the opening of this independent showroom in Chicago, Arper aims to reach a broader audience and allow more direct interaction with local customers and visitors. Roberto Monti, CEO of Arper, highlights the importance of the new showroom in Fulton Market, outlining how Chicago is a strategic and central market for the company. The objective is to be part of a prosperous and diversified neighborhood, creating a space that can support both industry professionals and consumers. 

The 400 square meter environment, designed by Charlie Green Studio, includes indoor and outdoor spaces, to highlight the wide range of Arper products and their adaptability to different uses, from residential to hospitality, passing through the workplace. The new showroom presents itself as a multifunctional place, with a focus on design, hospitality and community. The environment is designed to evolve over time, offering a particular focus on sustainability: the use of architectural materials is minimized and the lighting takes advantage of abundant natural light. 

Arper intends to transform the traditional showroom into a space where customers and partners can share ideas, projects and celebrations. A place where designers and customers can create personalized solutions, thus reflecting the concept of “The Project of Living”, an imaginary that reflects all the ways in which we live and work. 

Finally, the emphasis placed on sustainable use of space highlights Arper’s commitment to respecting the environment and the well-being of the people who will use its spaces. Designed with a constant eye on sustainability, the space uses devices and equipment that exceed regulatory requirements, from energy saving to waste reduction practices.
