New York Fire Station Building Transformed into a Furniture Showroom
Ralph Pucci International Transforms Historic Firehouse into an Alluring Showroom
Pioneering furniture showroom, Ralph Pucci International, has refurbished a historic fire station house in New York. The century-old firehouse in Greenwich Village has been transformed into a sophisticated, artistic furniture showroom with a minimalist vibe.
It is a charming blend of Ralph Pucci's signature aesthetic and the building's firehouse roots; a distinctive showroom displaying a curated selection of furniture and lighting in a museum-like environment.
Architectural Highlights
The firehouse's aesthetic beauty has been preserved by Dickie Frizzell, a New Zealand artist, who maintained the exterior and painted the allure of the inside walls. The space features a living room, kitchen, and pool table area that enhances the interactive shopping experience while keeping the former firehouse's spirit intact.
The vintage building has a garage-like front, original roll-up doors, and brass firefighter poles, hence combining the old-world charm with modern sophistication.
Furniture on Display
The showroom houses a variety of brands and designers. The range includes:
- Cabinets from Patrick Naggar
- Chairs from Jens Risom
- Lighting from Michael Anastassiades
- Outdoor furniture from Chris Lehrecke
- Sculptures from Ruben Toledo
Conclusion
Ralph Pucci's transformation of this historic fire station into a minimalist furniture showroom pays homage to its history while leading the way in modern furniture display and design.
