In 1954 Brian Flegel’s grandfather found a growing market in the furniture industry, a foundation in which Menlo Park’s, Flegel’s, was born. Fifty-two years later, after growing up working in the store and exploring other options Brian Flegel became interested in managing Flegel’s and joined the business in 2006.
Throughout his years at Flegel’s Brian has taken an artistic aspect within his work.

“I want the floor plan to inspire people to get the same furniture,” Brian said.

While furniture that is more convenient to buy online challenges him, Brian finds the silver linings within his employees that care about the industry and hand pick furniture for their customers to match their designs at home.
