As furniture stores cautiously reopen with new safety protocols in place for shoppers, TRNK is opening the doors to a new virtual showroom called REND. The virtual group exhibition shines a spotlight on materials like stone and metal, and it includes pieces from the TRNK Collection, as well as other artists, designers and studios.
The virtual space itself was styled like an old bathhouse and includes a mix of pieces with contrasting textures like soft seating and hard marble surfaces. Naturally, pieces like the Arc Chrome Armchair, the Fragment Stool and the others part of the exhibition can be purchased by adding them to a virtual shopping cart.
REND is a first-of-its-kind virtual environment from TRNK and it represents a shift in the way businesses across the globe are presenting their wares post-pandemic.
