Schumacher's Latest Locale Boasts Quintessential Queen City Flair

Recently opened in Charlotte’s South End enclave, Schumacher’s latest showroom and boutique spans 3,500 square feet chock-a-block with stylish trappings. The heritage brand enlisted local interiors star Barrie Benson, known for her Peg Norriss line with gallerist Chandra Johnson, to infuse the space with quintessential Queen City flair. Benson’s retro-inspired terrazzo floors, modular concrete mantel and custom oak cabinetry mingle with a scenic Iksel mural behind the mirrored checkout desk, bringing the immersive showroom to life. Elegant accents including potted topiaries, touches of terra cotta and bold tent stripes impart extra layers of charm.

And not unlike its Nashville counterpart (which debuted in 2022), the Charlotte locale proffers more than just textiles. Beyond its to-the-trade offerings, the boutique boasts a curated selection of entertaining essentials and hostess gifts, from Livia Cetti-designed paper florals and Morgan Peck objets d’art to Johanna Ortiz dinnerware and Jean Roger candlesticks. Monthly events such as trunk shows, book signings and floral workshops ensure it’s not simply a shopping destination, but a true hub for community connection.
