Explore our history and how we’ve gotten where we are today.
1985
Corporate Interiors was founded
George Piccirilli began Corporate Interiors becoming a Knoll dealer in the St. Louis market. With Knoll as a backbone, 4 employees and a 2,000 square foot showroom, our dealership was born.
After 35 years, George announced his retirement in early 2020.

1990
First relocation
Relocated to a business park in Overland, MO. Now that we were in a larger space we grew to 20 employees.

1990 V2
Second Move in a Year
We were growing so quickly that we outgrew our Overland location. When we moved to Brentwood, just off of Highway 40, our 42 employees were in a 10,000 square foot showroom with convenient access to travel throughout the region to meet with our clients.

1991
Acquisition Expansion
We doubled in size through a couple of key acquisitions in the St. Louis Market positioning us to more effectively serve mid-sized companies, education institutions and government organizations.
With this acquisition, we became the exclusive Knoll dealership in St. Louis.

2005
Additional Acquisitions
Over the span of two years, CI Select acquired The Invironmentalists, a commercial flooring installation company and Savi, an audio-visual technology company. The addition of these two companies expanded our capabilities into designing and delivering integrated workplaces while furthering our consulting practice.

2006
Rebranding from Corporate Interiors to CI Select
We now expanded our philosophy to deliver more than furniture. We are becoming more consultative offering additional services to our clients.

2015
Relocated to our Current Showroom
Our current location features 18,000 square feet of office and showroom space. This location is conveniently accessible to our 50,000 square foot warehouse that is the logistics and staging area for all of our St. Louis inventory and installation.

2017
Omaha Expansion
Partnering with Knoll, we launched a new showroom in Omaha, Nebraska. With many Fortune 100 companies calling Omaha home, the opportunities are tremendous.

2020
Opened Columbia, MO Office
Led by Jessica Ayllon, we're able to better service clients across Columbia, Jefferson City and throughout Central Missouri.

Spring 2020
New Ownership Team
With the retirement of George Piccirilli in early 2020, Claire Erker, Brian Heigel and Jenelle Moore became the new ownership team.

2020 and beyond
Looking ahead
In the world of COVID-19 and thinking what a post-COVID world looks like, our role in helping our customers has never been more vital. With our team of experts dedicated to supporting organizations of all kinds, we're sure the future is bright.
