We were thrilled to host Christine Marsigliano and a group of her extraordinary design students from the Fashion Institute of Technology (FIT), an internationally renowned design and business college in New York City, at our flagship showroom.

This collaborative design education day, underscored our unyielding commitment to sharing our extensive hardwood flooring knowledge with the next generation of the design industry and to encouraging their interest in designing with the most natural and sustainable resources.

Over lunch we were excited to teach our NWFA Course, WOOD FLOORING 101. We later embarked on a full tour of our flagship showroom to browse our extensive luxury wood flooring portfolio with a special appearance by PID Floors’ enthusiastic pups. At PID Floors, we believe in the resounding power of education and inspiration. It was an incredibly gratifying day of sharing our expertise about hardwood flooring and we look forward to seeing these talented FIT students contribute to the future of sustainable design.
