The main draw definitely has to be the beautiful furniture, wallpaper, fabric, and accessory lines we carry, but we'd also like to think it has a little bit to do with our commitment to excellent customer service and our dedication to keeping a well-maintained, wide range of samples and products to choose from.
If you have any issues with your items, questions, or a need for expertise, we provide high level customer service that you won't find at regular box stores. Tracking? We've got you. Tedious order processing? We're on it. Back and forth with a vendor? Our job. Need to know how much that one fabric from a year ago wears and what color you ordered it in? It was magenta, it's rated for 30,000 double rubs, and it should be fine for your client's sofa in the living room. We love the long-term relationships we have with our designers. Customer service aside, samples are expensive to purchase and maintain on your own. Singer Showroom has more than 35,000 fabric samples for you to choose from, and we are one of several showrooms in Longworth Design center. The design possibilities are truly endless. Trade-only showrooms provide product options and protect your markup to the end user, giving you the option of bringing in your customer to view and experience furniture and other products first-hand. In addition to inventory and price checks, immediate purchase options, and problem-solving support, Longworth Hall Design Center showrooms also conduct product presentations, seminars, and C.E.U.'s to support the design community. Singer Showroom and the Longworth Design Center must have your support to continue to provide products and services. Please place your orders through local showrooms that hold the business practice of selling exclusively to the trade. |
The price tags on our furniture and accessories show the retail price for the item. Sale tags show the sale retail price. This is because we often have designers bring in their customers, and we want to protect your pricing by only showing the retail price. Every designer charges their customer differently, whether through markups, the cost of their time, or a combination of both-- this enables us to service all designers and protect their individual methodology.

Our staff is experienced with design, designers, and the products and lines we carry. We have helped many of our design customers with their projects. We can provide you with information on the latest products, trends and sampling materials. We also have contacts with each vendor that can provide additional information and support.
Matt Davidson, president of Singer Showroom, is available to discuss any ideas you may have on how the Showroom can partner with you more effectively. |

Until recently, Singer Showroom was part of a much larger company called Singer Contract Group (aka Singer Wallcoverings), a company that provided contract interior products for 13 states in the mid-east and mid-south. Singer Contract Group, formed in 1942, was a third-generation family business. Singer Showroom LLC was established in 1989, and when Singer Contract Group was sold to RJF International in June, 2009, Singer Showroom was kept separate from that sale and continues to operate as a family-owned business.
Many showroom customers knew Lee Davidson. She was the spark that helped to create the Longworth Hall Design Center; Singer Showroom was the first tenant. In addition to her two boys and her briards (dogs), the showroom was her baby. Unfortunately, Lee Davidson succumbed to cancer in June of 2008. Her son, Matt, continues her legacy of supporting the interior design community of Greater Cincinnati, and continues to maintain ownership. Starting with Schumacher fabrics, complemented by a broad selection of wallcovering lines, the Showroom has maintained its reputation for unmatched customer service. Having added additional furniture lines to its product mix, the Singer Showroom has continued to serve satisfied customers throughout its 20+ years existence. We are continuing to add lines that complement our existing offerings, while increasing our inventory levels for fast-track projects. We also remain committed to the design community by selling only to the trade. |
"Our clients have appreciated our experience, products and level of service from our long-time employees. We take customer service seriously — at the end of the day it's about the relationships and experience you build with your clientele. Our goal is to take Singer Showroom from being considered a ‘premier destination’ to being ‘THE’ destination for beautiful residential fabrics, wallcoverings, furniture, drapery hardware, lighting and accessories."
- Matt Davidson, President and Owner
