You may have already heard the buzz about Brian Atwood's new "B" label. It's a rather sassy mix of styles, where strong, bold silhouettes meet modern, feminine details, making the newly designed showroom a perfect reflection of the B aesthetic. Lucky for us, we got a little peek into the new space to share with you!
The fun part of decorating a showroom space is that it can take more risks and be a bit more over the top glam. More than the furniture, I love the chrome displays - both simple shelving and abstract sculpture - the most.
Brian Atwood explains his vision: “The movement of the space is organic, young and expresses the spirit of the B girl. I wanted the showroom to have the feeling of an edgy art installation that incorporates everything I love – gorgeous art, sleek furniture and sexy shoes.”
He commissioned renowned installation artist, Sebastien L. Agneessens, to create two distinct areas decorated in an mix of custom-made contemporary furniture and vintage pieces from the 1960's and 1970's, creating a very high gloss factor.
The giant mirrored aluminum sculpture was based on the texture of reptile scales and weaves throughout the showroom serving as a unique display equally glamorous shoes. Agneessens explains his inspiration: “When designing the sculpture, I kept in mind how a giant glam rock vibraphone would look, something Daft Punk would play with at their concert. It has the ability to capture and reflect the light in a fantastical way, and further translates the look and feel of the space: organic, yet contemporary and hopefully elegant.”
What do you think of the whole look? I certainly think it evokes a rock and roll edginess and I love the light reflecting everywhere - there's such a fabulous energy to it! I'd also take that pair of leopard Milo Baughman chairs. Rowr.
