Q. What type of client does La Maison’s furniture appeal to?
We appeal to a very diverse clientele because we carry a very wide range of products.

Q. Being new to the Valley, what does La Maison offer that other furniture stores don’t?
A. La Maison offers a unique selection where one can find the best quality home furnishings in Scottsdale.  It’s a broad selection of “looks." It’s a chic, but very approachable shopping environment.

Q. As far as home and design trends, what are you seeing in the Valley?
We are seeing cleaner, straighter lines in ALL lifestyles. We are not seeing as much layering.  “Pops” of color are important.  There is also an emphasis on accent colors.

Q. You have been known for many years, running Robb & Stucky and know this market very well.  What is the major difference La Maison brings to the Valley?
A. Our product is specific to the lifestyles of Arizona and not of a national chain.  Each furnishing and accessory is purchased with this lifestyle in mind.
