About the Dallas Design District Showroom

Since 1990, Cantoni has operated Contempo Designs—dedicated solely to the A & D (architecture and design) community—in the Dallas World Trade Center and the Houston Decorative Center.

Over time, we realized we wanted to make our resources more easily accessible to the design community in Dallas, and to expand to a larger showroom while bringing in lines exclusive to Dallas and the state of Texas.

In October 2018 we opened a 30,000 sq foot trade showroom in a renovated midcentury space on Dragon Street in the renowned Dallas Design District.

Our Dallas Design District showroom has numerous exclusive brands including Arketipo, Aster Cucine, Cattelan Italia, Exteta, Gallotti&Radice, Henge, Idea Group, Meridiani, Malerba, and Rimadesio. Henge, Meridiani, Aster Cucine, Gallotti&Radice, Rimadesio, Cattelan Italia, Arketipo and Exteta have their own branded spaces within the showroom.

The Dallas Design District showroom was created with the A & D community in mind. There are conference rooms for private meetings, a coffee bar, and the kitchens are equipped to do live cooking demonstrations. The showroom is an interactive space where the Dallas design community is welcome to bring their clients and use the space as a one stop resource.

"By focusing on the needs of the architecture and design community, we have created a showroom unlike any experience," says Michael Wilkov, Cantoni founder and CEO. "It is a truly interactive space where designers and clients can gather and explore."
