British luxe fashion house Burberry presents a new Burberry store location on Bond Street defined by its minimal design language and accented with modern furniture. It spreads across three levels and embodies a sleek look with stark white floors, ceilings, and walls. This is contrasted by bright touches of brown, blue, and gold with fixtures in the form of pillars, wall displays, mirrors, and a staircase, which add a dimensional look to the location and is meant to mimic the brand's signature check pattern.
Burberry states, "The minimalist interior is punctuated with an eclectic mix of contemporary furniture, creating a stripped-back setting designed to spotlight key Burberry pieces. Overhead lighting has been crafted to replicate the iconic Burberry Check – a pattern introduced in the 1920s, referencing the brand's rich heritage." Jonathan Akeroyd, CEO of the house continues, "We are excited to open the doors of our newly refurbished flagship store on New Bond Street in one of London and the world's premier luxury shopping destinations."
