The company is modernizing its digital storefront in the first phase of ongoing platform developments.
GDA Staff// September 18, 2026
Artisan furniture and décor brand John-Richard has launched a new web platform designed to modernize the brand’s digital storefront.
The new site, which debuted at the spring edition of High Point Market, was developed in collaboration with EMUN to streamline the discovery process for all visitors. This transition provides a more user-centric browsing experience capable of supporting the scale and complexity of the John-Richard catalog.
The new interface, focused on clarity and utility, replaces legacy design elements with a contemporary layout that allows for more intuitive navigation across product categories.
“The EMUN team has been a great partner,” said, Alan Galbraith, CEO of John Richard. “We look forward to continuing to grow with them in the future.”
A key priority of the redesign was enhancing the visual experience through high-resolution detail shots. Users can now sort through these images directly from the thumbnail view to see multiple facets of a design at a glance, such as viewing a lamp both on and off or a credenza with doors both open and closed.
In addition, the platform introduces enhanced functionality through an API-driven architecture, providing more powerful search and filtering capabilities. Users are now able to quickly isolate options by color, finish, material and orientation.
“The John Richard’s team puts their trust in us to deliver, and that’s not something we take lightly,” Alan Moss, enterprise account executive for MarketTime, EMUN said. “This new web platform is our response to that trust: a site that matches the quality of their product and makes it easier for their customers to find exactly what they’re looking for.”
This launch is just the first step of the site’s development. The second phase will be aimed at introducing AI-assisted search tools featuring synonym recognition and autocorrect. Future updates will focus on streamlining the art collection experience.
