Opening of Style Library Showroom

Walker Greenbank PLC(AIM: WGB), the luxury interior furnishings group, is pleased to announce the opening today of a new showroom at the Design Centre Chelsea Harbour for Style Library, the Company's initiative to bring together its portfolio of brands.

Style Library, which includes the Zoffany, Harlequin, Sanderson, Morris & Co, Scion and Anthology brands, was launched three years ago as a website,www.stylelibrary.com, enabling users to experiment with different combinations of products and to order samples online.

The Style Library showroom comprises 280 square metres in London's Design Centre Chelsea Harbour and it seeks to offer the widest and most diverse range of the Company's wallpapers, fabrics and paints in one place.

The Style Library showroom replaces the brands' individual showrooms at Chelsea Harbour and is in addition to the Company's showrooms in New York, Paris, Dubai and Amsterdam. A showroom in Chicago is expected to open later this year and the Company also has partnership showrooms in Moscow and Shenzhen, China.

John Sach, Walker Greenbank's Chief Executive, said:"Style Library is an exciting initiative to bring together our portfolio of brands. It started in 2014 with the Style Library website and we are now delighted to announce the opening of our first Style Library showroom at the Design Centre Chelsea Harbour. This flagship showroom marks the first time that we have showcased our brands' wallpapers, fabrics and paints in one space. The objective of Style Library, both in the showroom and online, is to promote our brands as accessibly as possible to designers, stockists and consumers."
