Made.com promotes London showroom window display via Zoom
Online furniture retailer Made’s Charing Cross Road, London showroom is closed to physical customers amid the coronavirus outbreak.
The pureplay has therefore been offering virtual appointments and interior style advice.
And it has now launched a shop window that showcases its Spring creative scheme, with customers able to check it out via Zoom.
“Inspired by 70s design and organic shapes, this window highlights our new furniture collections (boucle is very much back!) using curved forms in soft touch paint and carpeted plinths for a soft luxe feeling,” Michael Sim, Head of Visual Merchandising, said in a LinkedIn post.
He added: “The concept will be rolled out across our European showrooms in the coming week too.”
Blockbuster stock market flotation
Earlier this month, we reported that Made was looking into a stock market flotation valuing it at more than £500 million and possibly as much as £1 billion.
The company, which is backed by Brent Hoberman, one of the co-founders of Lastminute.com, is in talks with banks about advising on strategic options.
This will include an initial public offering set for the coming months. Further details here.
