A
s modern Americans, we live in a throwaway society. From paper plates to cheap cotton t-shirts, consumers are increasingly content to purchase, then quickly dispose of things. As president and owner of Thomasville of Utah, Chris Ross has actively resisted this trend by providing an alternative. “The companies that make and sell mass-produced furniture are making a major miscalculation,” says Ross. “Consumers value thrift and convenience in some areas of their lives, but they are looking for quality, stability and permanence within their homes.” The success of Ross’ business is a testament to the veracity of his theory. Over the past 40 years, Thomasville of Utah has furnished many of the
most beautiful homes in the state of Utah, including numerous Parade of Homes People’s Choice Award winners. Thomasville’s commitment to providing gorgeous, enduring home furnishings has earned the company a reputation as one of Utah’s finest furniture establishments. High-end furniture doesn’t just look great; it also helps to create unique spaces precisely because it’s not available through mass retailers. With one of the largest showrooms in the state—30,000 square feet—Thomasville of Utah is a great place to begin. The store offers furniture from Century, Bernhardt, Drexel Heritage, Henredon, Lexington, Hickory Chair, Theodore Alexander, Thomasville and many more distinctive lines. “We stay current with the
trends, so we can provide something for every interior design project and every individual taste and style,” Ross explains. As the rest of the industry shifts toward cheap, throw-away furniture, Thomasville of Utah will continue to offer superior home furnishings.

nside Out Architecturals is the ultimate art tile destination in Utah. From wood parquet to glass, custom mosaic to historical ornamental, their lines are sourced from over 50 different global manufacturers.
Owner Leah Wynn, decorative tile specialist Anna Ayala and designer Jenny Rich continually gather exemplary artisan lines—many of which have provided historical tile for generations—to help clients recreate authentic designs. “The tile industry keeps growing,” says Wynn. “Our manufacturers are providing so many new and exciting products and designs.” For example, the print quality in porcelain has substantially improved, resulting in realistic texture replication of wood, stone and more. “Porcelain is being used in large pieces such as building cladding and counter tops,” Ayala explains.
Texture is huge in many surfaces. Even stone is brushed, blasted and raked for depth and interest. With increasing variety and options, it is important to have someone with experience to help you navigate the many choices. The pros at Inside out Architecturals know how to ask the questions that help their clients find the tile and designs that suite them best. “We’ll help you think of all the details,” says Wynn. “Our design services include drawings and custom elements if applicable.”
