Chicago's 'Salvage One' Doubles as an Antique Store and Event Venue

— December 10, 2016 — Art & Design
With a wide variety of treasures from the not-so-distant past, Chicago's Salvage One serves as the perfect place for finding one-of-a-kind home goods. Not only is the warehouse style showroom set up so that customers can freely hunt for their favorite finds, it also doubles as an event space for weddings, parties and other special occasions.

Salvage One is an antique store housed inside of a 60,000-square-foot warehouse. The rustic venue features exposed brick walls, wooden floors and large windows that highlight the beautiful treasures inside. On the one hand, the shop serves as a retail space for salvaged home furnishings and other presupposed accessories. On the other hand, Salvage One is also a popular event space for wedding parties looking for a charmingly rustic venue.

The success of this hybrid retail space make it a unique destination for those attending Trend Hunter’s Chicago innovation conference.
