A new custom
​
At SHOWROOM SQUARED, we simplify the complexity of custom design by providing a collaborative online workspace where the many evolving details of a custom order are captured and shared.
​
Hello
SHOWROOM SQUARED was founded by
Eileen and Dan Carroll
Eileen is a Chicago-based interior designer with over 25 years of industry experience in the US and UK
Owner of EILEEN CARROLL DESIGN - working on residential and furniture design.
​​
Dan is an IT specialist with international experience in B2B exchanges, online procurement and catalog management. He has also implemented sales & marketing and business intelligence solutions.
WHY
Showroom Squared was first conceived of in response to Eileen's experiences ordering custom furniture.
After many conversations with professionals across the industry - Showrooms, Brands, Manufacturers, and Trade - we began to formulate a solution.
​
We recognized that any solution must be driven by the showrooms coordinating order activities between their customers and the brands they represent.
We wanted to create a tool, tailored to the unique demands of custom furnishing, that would empower the brands and showrooms we love to leverage the latest technology, keep up with clients' changing expectations, and manage all the moving pieces that go into running a furnishings business - so they could continue to thrive in the digital age.
​
After months of research and development, Showroom Squared was created. Showroom Squared is a collaborative order management toolset that enables showrooms and trading partners to simplify and automate the process of ordering custom furnishings. It provides a shared platform for managing all aspects of the order process, from initial quote to final delivery, and improves communication and collaboration between showrooms, brand manufacturers, and trade.
