SOLON, OHIO—A leader in sustainable and innovative flooring solutions, Tarkett is announcing the grand opening of its newest showroom in Chicago’s Fulton Market District. To celebrate the grand opening, Tarkett invites architects, designers, and other industry professionals to attend an event series called Tarkett Design Days 2022, June 13 to 15.

Fulton Market District is widely considered one of the hottest submarkets for commercial real estate in the Chicago area, boasting hotel accommodations, bars, restaurants, retail, and notable corporate residents like Google, Dyson and MillerKnoll. In addition to its 10,000 square-foot space, Tarkett has access to the building’s rooftop patio with 360° views of the city skyline. Overall, the space is designed for the needs of today’s workstyles, with natural light, access to the outdoors, and flexible spaces for both independent work and collaboration.

“Fulton Market is home to some of the most innovative global organizations and serves as a destination for premier commercial interior brands,” said Tal Fegan, Senior Vice President, Strategic Accounts for Tarkett North America. “The neighborhood is a creative hub for design professionals, and has a great culture scene for music, art, and culinary experiences. We think it’s the perfect central location to serve our customers and our employees with beautiful displays of Tarkett’s unique product solutions.”

Showroom Designed by Kuchar

The new showroom was designed by Kuchar, a woman-owned boutique based in Chicago. Project designer Rachel Benitez said the space draws inspiration from the dynamic Fulton Market neighborhood and its industrial roots.

“The space is surrounded by floor to ceiling windows, so one is surrounded by natural light, downtown views, urban living, and the constant movement of the former industrial district. A sophisticated, neutral palette creates a clean backdrop for gentle nods to the neighborhood’s character. The aesthetic is truly a celebration of the floor,” Benitez said.

Tarkett Design Days will feature new product introductions, showroom tours and a series of educational seminars where leading experts will discuss the latest research on the future of workplace design, biophilic inspiration, and healthy materials, along with a truly unique networking event centered around representation and inclusion.

The Fulton Market showroom will be open 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. June 13 to 15. Tarkett will offer complimentary shuttle service from the Merchandise Mart area and Downtown Chicago to Fulton Market.
