Guests tend to gather at the store’s kitchen island—just like people coming home.
O ne of the most wel- come arrivals in Summit, NJ, of late has been a new Kohler Signature Store (KSS). Designer Judy Rogoff, who is also a manager at the store, calls Summit charming—with great restaurants and shopping that complement the offerings of KSS. “People familiar with downtown Summit are blown away by the elegance and beauty of the new store,” Rogoff says. “There was sig- nificant remodeling—both inside and outside—that completely changed the store and added incredible street pres- ence. The hard work on the renovation really paid off with an amazing flow and high-end customer experience.” Rogoff notes that customers ap- preciate how helpful the layout is in navigating Kohler’s innovative fixtures. “The faucets are lined up on one wall

Then, there is a row of our high-end smart toilets— with their auto-opening feature—along the back wall.” She says customers gravitate toward special displays in- cluding a section from the superstars of Studio McGee and a working shower that shows off the latest in sprays and smart technology. Rogoff notes an- other part that seems to have its own special pull. “Just like coming home: people congregate around our large kitchen island!” The launch was accompanied by a grand opening event hosted by General Plumbing Supply President Justin Freedman and David Kohler, Chair and CEO of Kohler Co. “David Kohler was incredibly nice, and it was a thrill to have him be part of our celebration,” Rogoff shares. “We rolled out the red
