Renovations Underway on the Mountain Lumber Showroom in Foscoe

Autumn — Tue, 20 Dec 2011 17:23:09 +0000

Earlier this fall, Mountain Lumber started renovations of our Foscoe showroom location in an effort to make browsing the isles and discovering new items more convenient to contractors and homeowners alike. Phase 1, including new hardware layout and products (Festool is here!), lighting, and redesigned counter, is now complete. As with the Banner Elk showroom, we wanted to include elements that represented local style and unique products with versatile application. In Banner Elk you’ll find a live edge slab counter top, Bark House poplar moldings and vertical lined barnwood walls. In Foscoe, planned reclaimed barnwood runs vertically around the the checkout area and the counter tops are wood, but butcher block style instead of slab.

Phase 2, coming in 2012, will include a redesigned decorative showroom for windows, doors, specialty woods (mantles, slabs, and Bark House brand products), cabinetry, and decorative hardware.
