Concept Surfaces, an exclusive supplier of high-quality, hard-surface materials, is proudly celebrating its tenth anniversary. This anniversary marks a decade of providing designers and architects an unparalleled selection of porcelain tiles, glass mosaics, hardwoods and luxury vinyl.
“One of the many reasons our teams love working with Concept Surfaces is trusting that we can always meet with our rep, describe our design intent and have a product delivered back to us that is spot on. It is paramount in our busy design world that we have a trusted advisor with our vendors, and we have that with Concept Surfaces….it’s a win-win for us both,” said Cindy Simpson, managing director of Gensler Dallas.
Over the past 10 years, the Dallas-based company has expanded representation to Fort Worth, Houston, San Antonio, Kansas City, St. Louis and Denver and plans to continue its expansion across the United States in the years to come. The idea for Concept Surfaces began in 2005 in Geoff Gross’ garage and was officially launched in January 2005. For three months, Gross sold tiles out of a catalog, as the samples had not arrived, and the company was in his condo and the warehouse was his one-car garage. Today, the headquarters is located in the Dallas Design District and includes an impressive showroom, offices and warehouse where Concept Surfaces remains dedicated to serving the needs of its clients with a diverse selection of on-trend and innovative products.
“I am extremely proud as we celebrate our tenth anniversary, a tremendous milestone for Concept Surfaces. What started as a very small home business has now grown into a nationwide company. Over the past decade, we have kept our promise of offering first-class customer service and products by always looking for ways to better improve our products and ourselves. We can’t wait to see what happens in the next 10 years,” said Geoffrey Gross, president and CEO of Concept Surfaces.
Throughout the past decade, Concept Surfaces has supplied materials for projects all over the world. Memorable projects include: First Baptist Church in Downtown Dallas; Gateway Church in Southlake, Texas; Hyatt Key West in Key West, Florida; Baha Mar Casino & Hotel in Nassau, Bahamas; Pizza Hut Express; Equinox in Dallas; Mitchell Gold + Bob Williams locations nationwide; and Forest Park Hospital in Fort Worth, Texas. During this time, they have also maintained long-term relationships with several notable manufacturers, vendors and architecture and design firms.
“For the past eight years, we have done a great deal of business with Concept Surfaces. I can honestly say with great pleasure, pride and joy that this company is on the top of my list. Geoff Gross and his team are credible, honest and professional. They exude passion and integrity within their work and each experience has been completely positive and makes my job very easy. I hope to continue to do business with Concept Surfaces for a very long time,” said Antonio Poggi, co-owner of Italian tile manufacturer, Unicom Starker.
Concept Surfaces continues its focus on innovation and design by collaborating with different manufacturers all over the world to create unique and cutting-edge formats that are exclusive to Concept Surfaces. Some of these formats include: Icon Hexagon; Sangria cut piece and formats as large as five feet by ten feet.
