Designed by Peter Marino, the store covers 7,500 square feet of luxury retail space in Crystals at City Center and is the second Peter Marino Concept Store to open in the US.
The store’s striped metal and glass façade and the pinstriped concrete entrance inside the shopping center echo Zegna’s spirit and brand story. The windows resemble the woven composition of textiles with metallic strands. The store features a dark wooden staircase set behind a glass banister climbing a wall of striped, frosted mirrors with bronze colored glass inserts.
The store has been created with masculine yet natural colored flooring composed of sustainable woods and stones. The first floor of the store features a single marble stripe that is modeled after the signature line that distinguishes Zegna fabrics. A large LCD screen, at the foot of the staircase, showcases the season’s fashions.
Zegna’s Sport brands are displayed through brushed aluminum and metallic finishes that combine with bleached teak tables and fixtures. Zegna’s refined urban elegance is portrayed through a palette of mineral grays, whites and blacks to showcase the brand’s collections against a contemporary backdrop.
An archetypal gentleman’s club has been created with mahogany wood and brushed bronze metals to showcase the core Ermenegildo Zegna brand, while a more casual area is decked in the natural warm tone of rosewood and brushed bronze metal displays.
The store, along with seven others in Milan, Tokyo, Dubai, Hong Kong, Shanghai, Shenzhen and Chengdu are the result of a partnership between the architect Peter Marino and Ermenegildo Zegna.
