Upon entering the store, guests experience the art of living with an atmosphere that blends elegance and comfort, harmoniously connected to the open-air mall. The redesigned space features Venetian plaster walls, brass accents, and white oak floors, blending the brand’s heritage with timeless natural elements. Blond wood arches separate the spaces, creating a modern coastal vibe and a sense of scale and proportion, encouraging shoppers to explore layered rooms with a curated selection of premium products that span fashion, art, books and more.
Shoppers are encouraged to view the finest books in partnership with Taschen, Cote Bougie scented candles from Morocco, and artwork brought in from New York based French artist, Servane Mary, to inspire a modern, relaxed feel. Her compositions include screen printed Plexiglas tubes with inkjet prints on window film and glass panels featuring moments of the American West, as well as a work of brass metallic paint, dye oxide and silkscreen ink on canvas. Sculptures by Jonathan Shlafer, Vince Skelly, and Nadia Yaron will be on display along with her work, creating a curation that embodies Banana Republic’s spirit of exploration and appreciation for craftsmanship.
