About Us

Twenty-five years ago, my wife, Leslie Tishman, and I formed GRACE Purchasing to preserve and support the designer’s vision in all aspects of the procurement and delivery process. In every project our mission is to give full expression to the designer’s vision within the client’s budget, and schedule.

Knowing that the proper expression of your design depends on the accurate execution of every detail, we are meticulous in translating your specifications into the products that will define the space. In those cases where trade-offs are required, we draw on a knowledge of products and materials that makes us uniquely able to preserve your design vision. Respecting you as the arbiter of your design’s integrity, we present you with options and recommendations, but always leave the final choice to you. Once your decision is made, we keep a tight focus on logistics and scheduling to ensure that every piece is in the right place at the right time.

In short, GRACE Purchasing acts on the belief that your design is the only roadmap to the proper execution of your project. We have the knowledge and skills to understand that roadmap, to follow it, and when a change in direction is required, the understanding that only you can choose the correct route.
