Thomas Lavin is one of the youngest entrepreneurs in Los Angeles to successfully open, own and operate two interior design showrooms featuring the very best in high-end furniture, fabric, lighting and accessories from the United States and Europe. The success of his “boutique” owner-operated showroom is his ability to spot singularly designed, impeccably crafted home furnishings lines and luxuriously display them with contemporary art. Lavin also is dedicated to providing exceptional client service, which has won him a loyal following among L.A.’s most exclusive architects and interior designers who cater to the upper echelons of the Southern California population.
He opened his eponymous showroom on Beverly Boulevard in 2000, and in 2005 moved to a dramatic 11,000-square-foot showplace in the Pacific Design Center’s Blue Building. With a 2019 expansion, the showroom now measures 19,000 square feet and includes dedicated areas for accessories as well as a stand-alone showroom for French heritage brand Liaigre. To better serve his clientele in Orange County, San Diego and the desert communities, Lavin opened a showroom at the Laguna Design Center in 2014.
