Gayle Massey and Steven McFarlain
Gayle’s career started in regional sales in 1980 in the Lawn & Garden industry, covering TX, OK, LA, and AR, selling to retail garden centers, growers, and national retailers. In 2001, they expanded into high-quality outdoor living products, building on their existing success.
This led to opening a showroom at the Dallas World Trade Center, which introduced them to the design industry. Steven joined the team in 2010 as showroom manager, and together they grew their designer and hospitality client base. Over the years, they’ve added top suppliers and stayed ahead of trends in design, color, and materials to meet the evolving needs of clients. Gayle and Steven are committed to exceptional customer service, understanding our clients’ needs, and offering the finest quality in outdoor furniture.
