John Varvatos
Detroit
Rock 'n' roll goes hand-in-hand with fashion at John
Varvatos in Detroit. When the designer opened the
menswear store in his hometown, he kicked it off with an
in-store Alice Cooper concert to give it some grunge. Housed
in one of Detroit's oldest buildings (it dates back to 1891),
the in-house design team kept the original architecture and
even discovered its original cast-iron columns buried in the
walls. The 4,600-sq.-ft., loft-style space features distressed
leather furniture and dark woods to complement the black,
punk-rock interior. Oriental rugs and red velvet curtains
add color and texture, while a grand-scale chandelier hangs
from above. In addition to the clothing and accessories
offered, the store is filled with records, rock star photos and
memorabilia, and a fully functioning stage, waiting for the
next rock show to begin.

Saks Fifth Avenue
Toronto
The finished product was definitely worth it when
Saks Fifth Avenue opened its first flagship store
after a 40-year wait. Heading north to Toronto for
the first time, the store is an elegant, artistic and
expressive shopping experience. The Saks internal
design and planning teams collaborated with
Cincinnati-based FRCH Design Worldwide to
create a luxury shopping experience in a gallerylike setting, which provides an elegant backdrop
for the merchandise. Rich textures with a neutral
palette are highlighted with pops of color and
a mix of materials to create innovative and eyecatching compositions.
Says Heesun Kim, vice president and
creative director at FRCH: "The store reflects an
international contemporary style with an elegant
manner and artistic attitude."
