Guests gathered around food and conversation at the Blackburn Young Spring Party

New beginnings.

The showroom changed. So did what we could bring to a project.

01 / The change

For years, Blackburn Young was known in Vancouver as a Knoll dealership. Following the creation of MillerKnoll, our offering grew to include Herman Miller.

Two design legacies.
One showroom.

We rebuilt the space around that idea — roughly half Knoll, half Herman Miller — not as separate collections, but to show how naturally the two could work together.

So we opened
the doors.

In Spring 2024, around 300 members of Vancouver’s A&D community, clients, partners and friends of Blackburn Young joined us for our Spring Party.

Spring Party: New beginnings.

The showroom was new.
The community wasn’t.
