Raw Architecture-Inspired Retail Interiors

The New Balenciaga Flagship Store Recently Opened

— November 15, 2022 — Art & Design
A brand new Balenciaga flagship store has opened its doors to fans of the fashion label. Located in the Miami Design District, the space measures 786 square meters, spread over two stories. This makes it the largest US flagship for the brand.

The Balenciaga flagship store houses some of the brand's finest ready-to-wear offerings, shoes, accessories, and other designer objects. The aesthetic of the retail space is just what you'd expect. Staying true to its creative vision, Balenciaga's flagship interior embraces creative director Demna‘s “Raw Architecture” concept—from chipped Art Deco floors paying homage to the design history of the neighborhood to "pilled enamel pools under benches that are held together with an unusual cactus material."

Currently, the Balenciaga flagship store in Miami also houses the artwork of visual artist Charlotte Thrane.
