This futuristic retail store in London's hip Dalston neighbourhood takes the idea of [concept stores](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/saint-laurent-rive-droite-1) to brave new level. The 'Late Night Chameleon Cafe' (or 'LN-CC' for short) houses clothing as well as music and books.

The futuristic retail store has four individual rooms which make for a unique shopping experience. Browse through the library, record store, [gallery](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/globus-basel) or hang in the club and bar space. Members of the public are able to book these stylish rooms for events and private parties. The rooms also feature a pretty wicked vintage sound-system which was specially built for the store.

If you're in the London area and want to visit, remember you must do so by appointment. Simply log onto the stores website and send an email or be old school and actually telephone them.
