J. Mark Interiors opens showroom in Jerusalem

Posted

J. Mark Interiors has opened its long anticipated showroom in Jerusalem, offering complete interior design, architecture and project management services to clients in Israel.

Located at 22 King David St., J. Mark Interiors Jerusalem is a beautiful and modern space that is fully equipped to service private customers as well as other interior designers and architects. Set up similarly to its flagship location at 461 Central Ave. in Cedarhurst, the new showroom provides ample working areas for customers to peruse numerous design options.

Previously, Mark would service his Israel clientele through his Cedarhurst location, commuting and tele-commuting at all hours. His knowledgeable team in New York would provide the customer support as necessary. The Jerusalem showroom will give his customers in Israel a home base to visit where they can discuss their projects and shop. Additionally, the J. Mark team will be operating a combined 15 hours a day between the two locations due to the time difference, increasing turnaround time on projects.

“Similarly to the schedule of a radiologist working in Israel for an American practice, we can get our customers’ instructions at the New York showroom and submit them to the Jerusalem team at the end of the day,” Mark said. “By the next morning in New York, the work has been completed.”

J. Mark Interiors offers the added option of a “turnkey” full service experience to address the needs of international clients looking to purchase and design a vacation home in Israel. Mark will assist in coordinating the search process and the purchase, and he and his team will personally oversee all operations, acting as the liaisons with local vendors and craftsmen.

Mark offers a wide range of price points and styles to suit his clients’ budgets and personal taste in both locations. He travels frequently to trade shows around the world in search of unique high quality materials. From fabric to furniture to wall coverings to accessories, he has curated the most exquisite yet accessible selections from around the globe, including a line of fabrics exclusive to J. Mark Interiors.

With his family based primarily in Israel and his business in both Jerusalem and New York, Mark has certainly racked up the frequent flier miles. He makes the most of his flying time to plan clients’ projects and, of course, get some rest before hitting the ground running when he lands.

“My commuting schedule will probably remain the same,” says Mark. “I plan to be wherever my clients need me. My goal is for the new showroom to provide an additional level of comfort, convenience and customer service for my clients in Israel.”
