BARBARA NEYER
OWNER
Barbara began her career in furniture at Voltage Inc, a high-end European furniture showroom, in 2001. She first focused on accounting and marketing but began occasionally filling in for the sales team, learning about and discovering her passion for the product. Barbara soon realized there was an integral but missing piece in the business: the market needed a Contract/A&D representative. In 2004 she created her own position and started calling on the A&D community, never looking back.
As the Contract/A&D Sales Representative, Barbara educated architects and designers on the value of her product and how to best use it in their spaces. Her focus has been on decorative lighting, furnishings and rugs for corporate, hospitality, restaurant, retail and healthcare spaces. Using a vast array of original, design-driven products, she defined Voltage as the leading contract firm in the region.
Fast forward 15 years, Barbara decided to transfer her skills and relationships to a new venture of her own: Design Lab. Barbara is excited to grow relationships locally and internationally through Design Lab and continue to share her knowledge and love for beautiful and functional design. Some of her current clients include FRCH, KZF, BDHP, Gensler, Macy’s, and Vocon.
