Cosentino has opened its fifth Cosentino Center in North America in Chicago, IL. The new center, designed by Isabel Martinez-Cosentino, aims to enhance both the trade and consumer experience and continues the company’s mission to expand its presence in the U.S. market over the coming year.
The Cosentino Center is designed to support and educate trade professionals with integrated distribution facilities, exhibition areas, workspaces for designers to bring clients, classrooms for continuing education and fully functioning kitchens and event space for demonstrations. The centers create an interactive environment for architects, designers, distributors, and fabricators to view the latest products and design trends, attend workshops, and receive training on new production techniques and innovations. Cosentino plans to have 16 locations in the U.S. by the end of 2011.
