Where Precision Meets Motion: An Experiential Boutique Concept.

This precisely curated boutique concept within the Elegant Additions Dallas showroom functions as a condensed, interactive environment designed to seamlessly merge the showroom's overarching aesthetic with Thom Filicia’s hardware line for Accurate Lock & Hardware. Built around functional, moving parts, the space invites clients to physically engage with the displays, utilizing modified walls that house functional mechanisms for scaled door hardware. Every element is carefully integrated to showcase the collaboration, anchoring the interactive zone with a signature Thom Filicia rug and utilizing a full roll of his wallpaper as a striking, text-based introductory display. Custom-designed furniture provides tailored hardware storage, creating a cohesive, high-end retail experience where bespoke millwork and precision engineering meet exclusive designer hardware.



As a solo endeavor, I independently spearheaded every phase of this project, working directly with the showroom leadership and manufacturing teams. I managed the complete lifecycle from initial ideation, research, and moodboard development through to material outsourcing, production management, and the final on-site installation.


















A central highlight of the interactive display features the iconic 17K knobs, meticulously selected to showcase the wide variety of available finishes. By mounting the knobs on a precise grid of highly polished stainless steel plates, the design creates a multifaceted mirror effect. This allows clients to observe a full, 360-degree, rounded view of each finish, capturing how the metallic surfaces interact with light from various angles.










Placed intuitively on the custom millwork counter next to functioning hardware samples, this durable, etched index provides an immediate map for designers and clients, instantly decoding each knob's specific alphanumeric placement, finish type, and colorway.
