RAG & BONE

"The third Rag & Bone store on Mercer Street is an airy space with high ceilings and a refined industrial feel. At first glance it looks like the other shops on the retail-friendly cobblestone block, but when you get in there and really look closely, you will notice, well thought out detailing that makes the space special. The lighting looks like something that came out of an old GM factory (or old New York workspace), the rolling racks were treated with acid to give them a nice patina and all of the furniture in the entire space was custom made for Rag & Bone. With the new Mercer space, the Rag & Bone folks have walked a fine line between having a functional, beautiful and well branded space — something you don’t see everyday". Writes Michael Williams from "A Continuous Lean". For me this store will be on my MUST SEE list when I do my field trip to New York next month. www.rag-bone.com
