About Fletcher Wakefield
Fletcher Wakefield is a to-the-trade showroom in Stamford, CT serving interior designers across Fairfield County and the Tri-State area. For decades, the to-the-trade model has been defined by physical space — fabric walls, sample libraries, vendor relationships built in person. Fletcher Wakefield has all of that: 10,000+ fabric samples, exclusive vendor partnerships, and eight private design rooms.
Fletcher Wakefield is launching a purpose-built software platform that takes everything the showroom does — sourcing, quoting, ordering, project management — and brings it into a single digital environment designers can run their practice on. The showroom is no longer just a destination; it is the front door to a complete operating system for the design trade.
