Our Story

Welcome to our online catalog! Even though it does not give you the exact experience of walking through our 30 000 sq. ft. showroom, it gives you an idea of what we have to offer.

Ambiente has started as a Scandinavian furniture store 24 years ago.  At that time there were very few stores offering high quality European contemporary furniture in North Carolina. From the very beginning we have customers as our priority before and after their purchase. This turned out to be the right approach for the business and we have thousands of happy modern furniture owners to prove it.

Soon after opening our showroom on Glenwood Ave. in Raleigh, NC we started expanding our collection. Now we have modern furniture from all over the world: Italy, Germany, United States, Norway and Denmark just to name a few.  We work with more than 200 manufacturers.

To answer a common question – we only have ONE LOCATION, in Raleigh, NC. We have always been a local store that is always there to help you. At the same time we ship nationwide and provide high level customer support and service to our customers that visit us personally, and to those who find us online.

We believe that furnishing a home is a task difficult enough, so we do our best to make your experience fun and easy.  Our showroom offers an enjoyable opportunity to see, feel and explore hundreds of furniture items. In our showroom you will see many unique interior arraignments, carefully created by our talented designers, that you would never think were possible.

When you come to visit, please make sure you stop by our clearance center to find out about our ongoing sales and specials.
