Paying homage to the rich traditions of Chicago Architecture, the Lincoln Park outpost for Aesop skincare is a study in material richness and restraint. Wall panels and shelving of walnut define the vertical surfaces contrasting with a textured terrazzo floor. Blackened steel is employed at the point of sale and as shelving supports to complete the palette. The result is a bespoke environment complementary to the Aesop design ethos and rooted in place.
