Visual Comfort & Co. and The Shade Store Open Magazine Street Showrooms

Two nationally recognized home design brands have arrived on Magazine Street, each opening its first New Orleans showroom. Visual Comfort & Co., formerly known as Circa Lighting, is known for its collaborations with leading designers to create high-end lighting collections, from statement chandeliers to custom wall sconces. The company’s new showroom will be located at 3535 Magazine Street, a newly developed property that once housed Harry’s Ace Hardware. SRSA Real Estate sold the building and leased the ground-floor space to Visual Comfort & Co. SRSA will also open a new office at the same property, placing the firm at the center of this high-profile stretch of Magazine Street.

Right next door at 3523 Magazine Street, The Shade Store is bringing its handcrafted, custom window treatments to the city for the first time. The brand offers a wide selection of shades, blinds, and drapery, with a design-focused showroom experience that allows customers to browse materials and work directly with experts. Their arrival, alongside Visual Comfort & Co., adds to the growing lineup of luxury home design retailers reshaping this stretch of Magazine Street.
