The idea is that a socialist/communist utopia wouldn't concern itself with the pursuit and hoarding of capital. So the "showroom" wouldn't really be a concept. We'd have catalogues and stores, but the fancy aspirational dressing that comes with the wastes of space known as furniture stores would be less prevalent.
