After three years of residence at the Atlanta Decorative Arts Center (ADAC), C + H Interiors is more than doubling its showroom to 4,500 square feet to better accommodate all its different project endeavors and to include its own in-house fine art gallery.
C + H Interiors provides design services and custom products for commercial and residential projects. The company began in 2000 as CW Design House. The Atlanta-based brand has had clients across the globe, including in New York and Japan.
Owner Lia Shin said the art gallery brings something new to ADAC.
“We wanted to do something that is primarily our art,” she said. “This is not a typical art gallery combining a lot of artists. It’s all in-house production, which is exciting… Even after the reopening of the expanded space, we want the gallery to continue.”
The expanded showroom is expected to be ready this summer, but they are open in the meantime.
New product lines include Dell Anno, Interlude Home, Adriana Hoyos, Jimeco Interiors and BNF Studio.
Shin is also the creative director of Creative Projects for Creative Culture (CPCC), a collective of team members in the U.S. and South Korea with expertise across different types of design.
In other news at ADAC, several other existing tenants are expanding their showroom or office space, including Made Goods and Susan Currie Design. French Market Collection will be relocating to the center after 37 years in its previous location, and game room furniture company Milieu will be opening a showroom there.
“We are overjoyed to welcome two extraordinary new showrooms, adding a fresh wave of products and services to our community,” ADAC General Manager Katie Miner said. “The expansion of existing showrooms and design offices is a testament to our commitment to providing an unparalleled platform for phenomenal businesses in the industry. At ADAC, our goal is to ensure our partners’ creative and functional needs are not just met but surpassed.”
ADAC was built more than 60 years ago by architect and developer John Portman. The center features interior design and home fashion and serves as a shopping resource for interior designers, architects and builders. It has more than 65 showrooms and 25 design studios that are open to the public Monday through Friday from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.

That entire development has become a huge eyesore ever since Avana burned down a few years ago (and it was trending down even before then).
Chili’s, Urban Flats, Five Guys, and even Taco Mac have left as crime, homelessness, and a general lack of upkeep have made Lindbergh entirely unsafe for families (there have been multiple shootings in the apartments just across the street by Home Depot too). They can open as many new concepts as they like, but until people feel safe walking around there to grab a bite to eat, I am not sure how successful these efforts will be.
These restaurant concepts sound exciting. The elephant in the room is the criminal activity will not go away just by making the space look great and having new restaurants. It may make it worse. I hope they can figure it out.
