Design Central

Design Central Serving Central Kansas with high quality commercial office furniture & interior design services since 1972.

We have over 75 different vendors to select the right product for each project, including Steelcase - a leading manufacturer in the industry. In the late 1940's following World War II, a small typewriter company in Salina, Kansas
started selling steel office desks. They were undoubtedly one of the first Steelcase
Dealerships established in rural Kansas. In 1953, Kenneth Stephenson bought this
c

ompany, Central Typewriter, and continued selling Steelcase furniture. In April 1972,
Design Central was created as a division of Central Typewriter due to the tremendous
growth in office furniture and the need to specialize. Design Central was incorporated by
Stephenson in 1983 and continued as a Steelcase dealership. In 1982, Suzanne Hokett joined the staff at Design Central and grew into a key employee
over the next ten years. In 1993, Kenneth Stephenson decided to retire and offered to sell
the dealership to Suzanne. Design Central continues today as a locally operated business. We sell
office furniture and offer a complete line of commercial interior design services throughout
Central Kansas. With over 5,000 sq ft of office furniture showroom you can see an extensive
selection of commercial office furniture at Design Central, 152 S. 5th Street, Salina, Ks. Or
check out our used outlet store, Budget Office Furniture Store, next door at 148 S. 5th
Street.
