Showroom Shine | Level 4 Collective
Upon entering Level 4 Collective Showroom, you’ll instantly feel…comfortable. Maybe its the lack of a receptionist that’ll set your mind at ease (we’re sure you hate those pretentious “bouncers” peeking their beady little eyes over a custom desk built two times the necessary height) or the modest showroom size, or the exposed brick, or the comfortable couch inviting us to relax or…well, you get the point. Why we really think you’ll feel so warm and fuzzy isn’t the showroom itself, it’s actually the people working there. Marc D’Amelio, the showrooms owner, and Nimonica, Level 4’s head sales person, have it figured out. When they say something, they do it. When they smile, they mean it. When they tell you don’t worry, you don’t worry.
