Description

Gucci has expanded its presence in New York with a 9,000-square-foot boutique situated on the corner of W. 14th Street and 9th Avenue, in the heart of Manhattan's Meatpacking District. The two-level boutique was designed as a concept space influenced by the convergence of New York and Florence, two cities that have inspired and transformed the House’s 102-year history. With grid-patterned metal mesh ceilings, a curved staircase constructed of shiny mirrored tiles, and painted cement flooring, the interior design expertly marries the sophisticated craftsmanship of Florence with the urban style of New York. A '70s aesthetic is brought to life through a pastel color palette, with shades of green, blue, and pink appearing throughout the store. Mid-century furniture, including restored second-hand pieces, and mirrored surfaces continue to pay homage to the decade.
