The Gucci flagship store's design reflects Gucci’s modern and classic aesthetic. The stainless steel and marble façade, for instance, makes a refined statement. Inside, optical marble floors and Italian furnishings by [Cassina](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ottogano), B&B, and Minotti create a contemporary ambiance. Bold accents in rosso ancora and acid green are sprinkled throughout and these design sensibilities align with Gucci's signature style. Sabato De Sarno’s influence is evident in the color palette and furnishings, which harmonize with Gucci’s latest collections, adding layers of visual interest. Finally, the destination also boasts sustainable design, as it follows LEED principles to enhance energy efficiency.
