Behind The Scenes: The B Brian Atwood Showroom

Filed under:

We were so excited to hear that one of our favorite shoe designers is launching a contemporary line: B Brian Atwood. But what got us talking was the label's amazing showroom in New York City's Meatpacking district.

Located inside a building dating back from 1901, the showroom features an almost reptilian sculpture made of mirrored tiles. The space-and sculpture-was designed by installation artist Sebastien L. Agneessens. Agneesens, who is a musician and sound designer in addition to his work as creative director of design and production studio Formavision, compliments Atwood's architectural shoes with an environment inspired by music and art.

"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," he says. "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."

To see how the space came together, check out this behind-the-scenes video of the B Brian Atwood showroom.

And if you're in New York City, visit the B Brian Atwood trunk show August 18-19 at Saks Fifth Avenue.
