Executive Furniture Rentals: A CORT-Affiliated Choice

Wednesday, May 5th, 2010

Chances are, if you’re looking for office furniture in Toronto and you’re on this blog, you know about what we do.  We provide a variety of furniture solutions for home and office in the Toronto area.  Our range of furniture is designed to provide satisfying results for all budgets and project sizes.  Whether you’re looking for a simple set of basic furnishings for a spare bedroom or you need some Herman Miller office systems for the large call center you’re relocating across town, we’ll be able to help you out.  (For those interested, check out our recent blog post about call center furnishing in Toronto.)

In addition, for those looking to sell their homes, we offer home staging solutions.  Home staging is an excellent way to help set your residence apart from other properties prospective buyers might be looking at, since it gives the home a lived-in feel.  And anyone who’s been to a home showing where the real estate agent baked cookies or bread beforehand knows how positive an impact the impression of human presence can be for a property for sale.

And so on and so forth.  Like we said, if you’re here, reading this blog, you probably know all this.  The question is, why do we offer all these wonderful services in tandem?  The answer: We’re affiliated with CORT Furniture.

CORT, a Berkshire Hathaway company, is the premier international furniture rental and relocation services provider.  It does what we do, but on an international scale.  Moving from Alberta to Albania?  CORT’s relocation services will help make the transition as smooth as possible, whether you’re a party of one or an office of hundreds.  It’s their specialty.

We’re proud to be a member of CORT’s global network, their representative in the rapidly burgeoning Toronto area.  If you’re not from around here, and need any of the great services we offer, there’s bound to be an affiliated branch near you.

International Contemporary Furniture Fair (May 15-18)

Monday, May 3rd, 2010

international contemporary furniture fairGood news for all you office furniture fans like ourselves: the International Contemporary Furniture Fair is coming to a city near you, and soon!  Well, it’ll be “near you” if you happen to live near New York City, anyway.  But it could be farther!  From us, anyway.  Ahem.  Excuse us.

As we were saying, from May 15th through the 18th, the International Contemporary Furniture Fair is being held in New York City.  Organized with industry insiders in mind, the fair will be an eye-opening event for designers, architects, manufacturers, and retailers.  Attendees will be able to see all manner of exciting, fresh ideas for office and home furniture.

Much of what you typically see at these events is conceptual in nature.  There’s a lot of freewheeling, fun experimentation going on as designers and manufacturers try to one-up each other on a big stage like this.  (For good examples of some of the more wild & wooly offerings you might find at an event like this, check out this article about the 2010 Milan Furniture Fair.)

Incidentally, we were wondering: where does the International Contemporary Furniture Fair get its furniture?  Just a random thought from a curious blogger.  (If the event was being held in Toronto, we’d love to provide our special event furnishing services—but you probably already knew that!)

Nevertheless, events like these are great opportunities to see what the best and brightest are cooking up for us to sit, sleep, work, and eat on.  If you find yourself in the area—or, if you’re in our neck of the woods, if you feel like taking a pleasant, verdant road trip through Southwestern Ontario and upstate New York—don’t pass up this opportunity.  We recognize, though, that this isn’t everyone’s cup of tea.  If you just want to stick around and see some homegrown Toronto furniture for hire, we won’t object!
