What a neat little place! I was invited to a happy hour at this place a few weeks back. For anyone familiar with the Merchandise Mart (I'm not all that familiar myself), this is another one of those furniture places that showcase all of their...merchandise (sorry, there was no better word). This company works in modular furniture wall structures, and they have some really neat things. Essentially, you can change your whole room with the products they have. Some of there really fascinating items are the beds/couches that fold out of the wall!! I'm sure to anyone who's familiar with furniture, you'd say this is no big deal.
Well, then, if furniture, design and architecture is your niche, then this is also the right place to host your next gathering. Obviously, a lot of their architecture is their product, but the space itself has it's own flavor to it. The company is located on the top floor of a building on the south side of the Chicago River - it has a nicely designed patio (and glass curtain wall for the remainder of the North side of the space) that overlooks the river as well as the wonderful architecture that Chicago has to offer. read more
