D Scale, one of the South End's most illustrious new furnishings and accessories stores has been selected as one of Home Accents Today's 50 Retail Stars.  This award is presented to 50 national retailers of home furnishings and accents who demonstrate "a knack for merchandising, are vital members of their communities, and have managed to distinguish themselves from their competition in order to be successful."  D Scale distinguishes itself through it's own line, the D Scale Collection of upholstered seating, tables and case goods designed by owner and award-winning interior designer Dennis Duffy, along with international fine furnishings lines including Brazil’s Emporio Beraldin, Italian leather sofas by Polaris, as well as contemporary and vintage 20^th century furnishings and accessories from South America and Europe. 

 

According to Jeffrey L. Portman, Sr., President and Chief Operating Officer of AmericasMart Atlanta, "...the retailers we see and serve here generally share these distinctive and immediately recognizable characteristics:  an authentic passion for their business; a serious dedication to the quest for all things new; and unstoppable drive in pursuit of what's next.  We applaud these qualities as the essential, enduring marks of success for those retailers who hold to a uniquely individual style of doing business...evidenced in everything from merchandising to marketing to customer care.  These essentials are surely present in the 2009 Retail Stars..."

IN CASE YOU DIDN'T KNOW......

The D SCALE Collection is designed by award-winning interior designer, Dennis Duffy. Dennis found that it was often times easier to design customized furniture to meet his client's needs than it was to shop around for that perfect piece. Dennis opened D SCALE in November of 2007 hoping to provide this same ability to fellow designers and customers alike. The D SCALE core collection includes case goods and upholstery that is completely custom-capable. Production of these custom furniture designs happens locally within the New England area and takes anywhere from 6-12 weeks. Dennis sought out several other established collections that would complement the D SCALE line. It was important to him that these collections also provide clients with custom capability options. Emporio Beraldin, Polaris, Ercole, and Duveen 20th Century are a few examples of the collections represented at D SCALE that offer custom options. If you saw a table in a magazine five years ago and you can't get it out of your head or find it anywhere we are happy to pool our resources and provide quotes for having that piece made especially for you. The same goes with our accessories and pillows. What we offer for sale off the floor is a small selection chosen to complete the D SCALE aesthetic. If we don't have exactly what you are looking for we will work with you and our vendors and find what you need. If we can't find it we also offer a completely custom pillow program where we chose fabrics and have them made for you. Call the showroom for more information!
