A History Lesson in Fabulous, Affordable Furniture

Weisshouse has been around since 1943. One of Weisshouse's best selling, most budget friendly furniture lines, Mitchell Gold + Bob Williams came along in 1989 at a time (much like now) when the economy was less than stable. Back then, MG+BW was known as The Mitchell Gold Co. According to their wonderful, truly user-friendly website (www.mgbwhome.com), "One of their earliest ideas, "Relaxed Design," was based on trends they saw in the apparel industry. Designing furniture Bob Williams would want in his own home - comfortable, classic, affordable - he dressed his pieces in relaxed slipcovers of pre-washed fabrics like denim, khaki and velvet. He also addressed the need for a less-intimidating shopping experience by limiting choices to avoid confusing consumers." The idea that design should be relaxed certainly paid off for MG+BW because sales have reached an excess of $100 million and the company has received a multitude of awards.

In addition, Mitchell Gold + Bob Williams are honored to support grass-roots and national not-for-profits who champion for those less fortunate and individuals living with life-challenging illnesses. The company is proud to support groups such as the Human Rights Campaign, Empire State Pride Agenda, DIFFA (Design Industries Foundation for AIDS), Friends In Deed, ALFA (AIDS Leadership Foothills-area Alliance), Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation, Ovarian Cancer Research Fund and the Leukemia Society.
