Bumping this amazing thread

From wonder-wall.com

The only two requests designer Toshikazu Iwaya of DRESS CAMP, one of the premier up-and-coming clothing and accessory designers in Japan, made were the color "pink" and "lions" for his first freestanding boutique. With that in mind and together with the designers' Glam-Rock signature style, Katayama incorporated statues of lions, the kind one would expect in a distinctive museum or library, but made in fiberglass, chandeliers, a plushily piled carpet and other classic elements into the interior design, with mirrors placed on both sides to amplify old-world aspects with kitsch undertones. The defining concept was the sense of playfulness that occurs with having the two facing mirrors reflecting the inner space reflecting off one another.

what a fun job would that be!? All the windows you guys posted look awesome! I could walk down the streets of any city in the shopping districts and just stare at the windows all day!..but then again maybe people would think I was crazy or something!

thanks Baizilla I liked that interior, but I think the lions will look better if they were unboxed & raised on a small platform..that will creat more museum feeling ...just my humble opinion

Meet the new generation of mannequins from http://www.thecoolhunter.net/ :

WHAT A DUMMY Friday, 07 April 2006


Meet the new generation of mannequins set to grace the windows of stylish boutiques and department stores around the world. More like sculptures than Dummy’s, the mannequins look as if they’ve been snatched out of a
contemporary art gallery. Certainly adds a whole new dimension to window shopping. Also creating a stir in the world of window merchandising and retail is the intelligent dressing room. It scans your measurements and lets you see on a projection screen how a piece of clothing will look on you. Now that’s convenience. by Lisa Evans

Ahhh... You are so lucky to have all those big stores in Tokyo! Here in the US, we are lucky if we get a store bigger than 6'000 sq feet (*besides NY or LA) !!

I'm so jealous

Does anyone know where I can find any sites or resources devoted to retail store interiors and windows specifically higher end designer stores - I recall finding one a while back and now I can't locate it again.
I have a project I need to put together and need alot of reference examples specifically from new LV store in Paris shoe displays and Lanvin Paris windows. Can anyone point me in the right direction.
Apologies if I've posted in the worng section, but I wasn't quite sure where to put this question
