PACIFIC DESIGN CENTER | WESTWEEK 2020 UPDATE #2

March 12, 2020 Due to the increased concerns over COVID-19 and the steadily increasing urgency of the emergency, the Pacific Design Center has decided to cancel its March 18-19 WESTWEEK event.

In the meantime, the Pacific Design Center remains open and is conducting business as usual -- we invite you to visit and see what’s new this season from our renowned showrooms. For a glimpse at some of the latest product and collection launches, click here.
