RH, formerly Restoration Hardware, is a design-driven luxury retailer specializing in high-end home furnishings, décor, textiles, lighting and outdoor living products. The company offers a curated collection of furniture pieces—including seating, casegoods, beds and dining items—alongside rugs, art and decorative accessories. RH’s product lines are organized into distinct collections, each reflecting a cohesive design philosophy and premium craftsmanship aimed at the residential and hospitality markets.
Founded in 1979 in Eureka, California, by Stephen Gordon, Restoration Hardware began as a small warehouse in Northern California. In 2012, the company rebranded as RH, aligning its corporate identity more closely with its evolving emphasis on luxury design. Over the decades, RH has expanded its footprint from a regional wholesaler to an international retailer, broadening its product offerings while maintaining a focus on curated, gallery-style presentation.
RH operates through a network of gallery showrooms located across the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom and France, complemented by an e-commerce platform and seasonal print publications. Each RH Gallery serves as both a retail space and a design destination, offering clients in-house design services, trade programs and access to custom-made and artisan-crafted pieces. The company’s integrated supply chain spans product design, sourcing and global logistics, supporting both standard and personalized offerings.
Under the leadership of Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Gary Friedman and Chief Financial Officer Stewart Tam, RH continues to pursue a strategy centered on brand elevation, experiential retailing and category expansion. The executive team emphasizes collaboration with architects, interior designers and artists to reinforce RH’s position in the luxury home furnishings sector, while seeking to extend its market reach through new categories and international markets.
