About
Ad Hoc Home
Welcome to Ad Hoc Home, where we curate home design experiences that seamlessly blend high-end design on a retail level.
AD HOC ROOTS
Ad Hoc Home had its roots in exclusive interior design before venturing into the world of retail by opening our showroom and storefront.
As the years unfolded, the vision evolved, leading us to embrace the digital landscape with a dedicated online space that caters to a wider clientele. The vision was to bring our design services to a retail level. Realizing that bespoke interior design doesn’t fit into all budgets we had the vision of bringing curated selections that make the shopping experience easy and seamless. We curate and pair products that work well together making it easy to shop a look but still make it your own. Our goal is to bring design to an audience that may want help tying their spaces together.
WE ARE CONSTANTLY CURATING COLLECTIONS TO MAKE SHOPPING FOR YOUR HOME EASY AND ENJOYABLE.
We pull from many of the vendors we work with but given the unique nature of each curated collection we may have to substitute products or increase lead time if our vendors are low on an item. If we need to make a substitution or make you wait we will always reach out first to get your approval. The Ad Hoc Home collection is ever-changing, evolving, and transforming to suit design concepts we love right now, giving way to a dynamic take on interior home design. The unique aspect of our curation lies in the idea that varying design pieces can share the same space, creating both undeniable style and curated harmony in your home.
