Marni shops

Future Systems did A Marni store in 1999...not sure if it's the New York one. They also did the Comme Des Garcons store in NY (and maybe paris).

The Marni shops are being made bý Sybarite in London. See their website www.sybarite-uk.com where you also find great pics of the latest shop in Milan!

Future Systems designed the new york, tokyo and paris stores according to a 2003 article on designboom of which the main design element is a curvilinear stainless steel rail that curves around the store.

I think Sybarite was brought in later to design other stores with different interior concepts but retaining the curve steel element (possibly at Marni's request), which I personally feel is somewhat timidly implementated in some of the stores (reduced into simple steel arches in the LA store for example)

 

[morebybaklund]

You are very right! Marni's stores were first made by future systems and later by sybarite, but the truth is that it is the same persons working on it. Its as simple as that:-)

Waaa?! I was just there last nite at Urth...How could I have not spotted it?

...with Marc Jacobs, Marni, etc.... it will be right near Miu Miu

That makes a lot of sense to have those three close together. Marni is definitely my favorite of the bunch.

Yeah, I think so....it's not too far from where I live. Can't wait for the opening.

^ yeah... its kind of hidden away on the tree-lined Melrose Place, which is a short parallel street to Melrose ave. Happiness, it has been open for a while now.
