Dsquared2's Dean and Dan Caten are celebrating their 20th fashion anniversary with a new London flagship at 51 Conduit Street Mayfair
为了纪念Dsquare 2成立20周年,加拿大兄弟迪安(Dean)和丹·卡滕(Dan Caten)在伦敦开设了他们的第一家新的欧洲门店设计理念。过去九年里,这座城市也一直被他们称为“家”。
然而,他们最大的零售商店-三层楼的面积为4600平方米-也容纳了一间新的伦敦设计工作室,该工作室以前在南肯辛顿的住所内,形式不太正式。“我们也走到了三楼,”丹在导管街大楼散步时说,“就像窗户从三楼到二楼一样,我们不希望有人在三楼有难看的办公室,所以这将成为我们的新设计研究。”
在此之前,这对双胞胎都是自首承认的吉普赛人,每周至少两次登机。“我们现在可以分散了,这将是一站式购物,”他在谈到他们的多任务梅菲尔梅森时说。“我们总要去旅行,我们公司的人会来这里。”这将是另一种生活方式,因此也会很快乐。总部将留在米兰,生产将在意大利,但双胞胎还将聘请一个新的团队与他们在伦敦工作。“我们将有一支意大利队和一支英国队,”丹说。他补充道,“太棒了,我们可以随意为顾客提供服务。”
分为区域,精品店主要由暗木制橱柜和搁置,这创造了亲密的口袋。例如,在二楼,她们的女装中的一个特定角落只容纳有双窗帘的晚礼服,这些窗帘可以被拉开,形成一个私人沙龙。“定制豪华区”,丹说,这是定制空间,将在纽约,洛杉矶和迈阿密的旗舰开口的下一个范围内翻译。
大多数地区都有自己的家具组合,从墙上安装的鹿角灯和吊灯(“以前它们是天然的,现在一切都变得更漂亮了,”迪恩说,当我们经过一盏变黑的鹿角灯时),再到绿丝绒扶手椅和休息室;“你应该感到舒适,所以这里很温馨,”丹补充道。
男装位于一楼,考虑到伦敦的萨维尔街(Savile Row)和导管街(Guidit Street)的空间拐角处,这是很有道理的。地下室是品牌休闲世界的所在地,包括卡车司机帽、运动鞋和牛仔布,这些都是他们第一次闯入现场。迪恩说,他们在这层楼认识我们,这是为了改变这种状况,并提供一个真实的代表,说明我们是谁,而你在百货商店里是找不到的。
丹同意这样的观点:“这是商店概念的一种演变,就像一开始都是伐木场一样,”他在谈到他们的乡村风格时说,“堆积如山的木料堆积如山。”现在,随着我们的成熟,他们仍然在这里,但拍摄的黑白和更精致,“他说,指的是一个图形图像,背后的主要楼梯井,其中有一个绿色的景观,加拿大森林。“没有伐木场,随着年岁的增长,我们会变得更加优雅。”至于他们的扩张计划,迪恩说,他们的目标是在接下来的几年里,每年有五家门店。
In addition to housing their largest retail store - at 4,600 sq m over three levels - the building also accomodates a new London design studio, which was previously located in a less formal form within the brother's South Kensington abode
Divided into zones, the boutique is dominated by dark wooden cabinetry and shelving, which creates intimate pockets. On the women's second floor, one particular corner hosts evening gowns with dual curtains that can be drown across to create a private salon: 'More of a luxury pampering zone,' says Dan of the customisable space
Most areas have their own grouping of furnishings from wall-mounted antler lights and chandeliers ('before they were natural and now everything is a little bit chicer,' says Dean, referencing a stylised antler lamp) to ochre velvet armchairs and lounges: 'You should feel comfortable, so it is homey,' adds Dan
The basement housing the brand's casual world including the trucker caps, sneakers and denim that they first burst onto the scene with. 'They know us for this floor,' says Dean, 'and it's about trying to change that and offer a true representation of who we are that you won't get at a department store'
'It's an evolution of the store concept as in the beginning it was all lumberyard,' Dan adds of their rusic interiors, 'with stacks of wood piled up. Now, as we have matured, they're still here, but shot in black and white and more refined,' he says referring to a graphic image that backs the main stairwell featuring a verdant vista of a Canadian forest. 'Less lumberyard and a little more elegant as we get older'
