Our History

David Lyall Home & Design is an evolution of Buck Home Furnishings, originally established in 1979 by Walter and Linda Lyall.

Over time, this family owned business grew its reputation for quality and excellence, becoming a popular retail furniture destination. In 2005, David Lyall purchased the company from his parents, keeping the enterprise in the family, while adding a host of professional interior design services to the company’s offerings. Then, in early 2016, Buck Home officially became David Lyall Home & Design and the company moved to 241 N. Prince Street in downtown Lancaster City. The new retail showroom and offices are located in an historic brick warehouse built in 1885 as part of the Teller Brothers-Reed Tobacco District.
