On the Boards
Guess who’s back …. the SASSY K’s!!! Have you missed us?!
Construction has not slowed us down! Since May we have been working with a new client that specializes in data protection. We’ve been busy creating a unique space for them to call home at the Mart. Through several layouts, finish schemes, and renderings we have narrowed it down and it’s out to bid. We’re really excited to see this project come to fruition! See some of the renderings below.
We had a senior living project pick back up last month! Phase one – we remodeled their existing spaces interior finishes, which is nearing completion. Now we are moving on to Phase two – finalizing furniture, selecting artwork, and customizing signage for the new addition. All the important finishing touches that complete a project!
Rep Round Up
We can’t thank our reps enough for all of their help in our office remodel! So many helped us along the way with samples, pricing, and final selections. Our office wouldn’t be complete without the furniture and finishes. We are so fortunate to have strong relationships with so many knowledgeable and helpful reps in our industry.

After 3 months of construction our library is almost back up and running! We thank everyone who stored their binders during that time and helped us restock it.
We love hearing everyone’s feedback and welcoming them to our new space. We hope to share photos in our next post. Thank you for all of the “office warming” gifts! You’re all too kind to the Sassy K’s!
Happenings
The summer is always filled with fun events throughout the city.
We enjoyed a night out in Wrigley with Milliken, Cubs brought home a W – most likely because we were there! Thanks Kris!!
HBF/HBF Textiles extended an invite for us to join them on the IIDA boat cruise, which is always one for the books. We got to catch up with industry friends and network with new. We were lucky to partake in the event, definitely the best view of Chicago is from a boat!
To close out August, Tarektt and HBF/HBF Textiles threw a Rooftop Social at the J.Parker. The weather was gorgeous and again these views of Chicago never get old. We got the chance to discuss our current project with the HBF team that we specified some HBF pieces on – their Social chairs and Woven Memory fabric. We’re all excited to see the finished pieces come this fall.
We have our office summer party in the next couple weeks to round out the summer. It’s been an eventful one that has brought our office closer through the many changes. We’re looking forward to what our new space will bring us!!
