F. Schumacher & Co, a New York-based interior design house, has moved its headquarters from Midtown to the heart of Manhattan’s Soho neighborhood in the historic Devlin building. The new space reflects the identity of the design house and its collection of brands, including Schumacher fabrics, Patterson Flynn luxury custom rugs, Backdrop wallpapers, and Frederic magazine.
FS&CO was founded and established in New York City in 1889 by Frenchman Frederic Schumacher and was a pioneer in the world of interior design, getting its start by bringing the art of French textiles to the United States. It is a sixth-generation family-owned company. Its new headquarters, located at 459 Broadway and Grand Street are in the landmarked Devlin building, constructed in 1861, the original home to the Devlin department store.
Situated over four floors that are flooded with natural light, the new office space is a fluid, shared setup that is designed to inspire creative energy. The office meets the needs of these rapidly expanding teams with increased meeting spaces, lounge areas with large library tables, and a rooftop.
