Leading home lifestyle store targets professional sector with invite-only event

A Northants home lifestyle store renowned as a leading supplier of kitchens, bathrooms, fires and stoves, has hosted a range of successful certified professional development (CPD) presentations to showcase the range of services it has on offer.

 

Targeted at architects, quantity surveyors, interior designers, developers and professionals involved in the specification of high end products for the home, the invite-only event held at Bell of Northampton’s extensive 25,000 sq. ft. store on Kingsthorpe Road, Northampton in May, featured a trio of Royal Institute of British Architects (RIBA) approved presentations.

 

Taking place across three different departments, kickstarting the day was a CPD presentation in Bell’s stove department by David Van Vurren representing the Stove Industry Association, which focused on sharing knowledge on sustainable wood burning stoves and their specification in new build homes.

 

Lynda Mills of Fisher and Paykel Luxury Kitchen Appliances, talked about collaborative responsibility. Taking place in the kitchen showroom at Bell, she gave attendees insight into how to reduce carbon footprint through sustainable appliance choices.

 

The final session of the day was held in the bathroom showroom and was hosted by Der-John of Toto, one of the world’s leading brand of shower toilets. His talk centred around the theme of modern WC design and toilet technology, also looking at why shower toilets are increasing market share, year on year.

 

Commenting on the success of the event, Dave Richardson, director at Bell, said: “The event went really well. We were keen to widen the appeal to those outside the county which is why we decided to focus on holding three CPD sessions in just one day – something we haven’t done before.

 

“It was a real team effort to pull together the agenda for the day and very exciting to showcase what we can offer here at Bell across a range of innovative products for the home. The day allowed those in attendance to fully understand more about us as a company.

 

“The feedback we received was very positive. All were impressed with us as a business and it was fantastic to hear them say that they will recommend us to their clients. We will certainly look to do a similar event in the future.”
