Mainstream Retail
OFF THE SHELF
"Off the Shelf" as we like to refer to it are the mainstream retail stores: West Elm, Pottery Barn, Restoration Hardware, and the like. Typically these are manufactured overseas and produced in bulk. You're likely purchasing from such vendors due to lower price points, local, or online accessibility and in-stock inventory.
These goods have a 3.5 if not 4x markup on them. You may also be purchasing from these vendors because you're not overly concerned with custom or one of a kind pieces. Sticking with inexpensive, trendy, and not expensive is your motto.
The behind the scenes of these retailers is that the product is produced in third world countries, in factories with harsh conditions. Many of which expose and promote child labor.
Quality & Exclusive
TO THE TRADE
On the flip side you have "Trade" products. In the interior design world, the word "trade" is used to describe a special partnership or relationship between manufacturer and designer-only. This is a private relationship not directly open to the consumer. Hundreds of thousands of companies produce product such as furniture, rugs, lighting, to strictly be sold to designers, who use the exclusive product to source for clients projects. These products are better quality, may have longer lead times, and have endless custom fabrication options. When purchasing product through a designer, you're benefiting from our years of vendor relationships and products that are unique,
and less mainstream.
As designers we aim to combine $$$$ high - $$$ low products to maximize our clients budget while maintaining product integrity.
