Hourglass Cosmetics
Crosby Street, SoHo, New York, NY
Type of project: Fit-out
Duration of Project: 10 weeks
Square footage: 830 sf
Partners: O'Neil Langan Architects
Noteworthy: The 830 square foot space was completely fit-out with luxurious materials and captivating visuals. The modern design was inspired by the brand itself, taking elements from the packaging, products, and culture, to create a space that was visually appealing and allowed their customers to engage with their brand. Hourglass and O’Neil Langan worked together to create a state-of-the-art designed space that features the brand’s full line of cosmetics, skincare and offers new services unique to this location. The brand is brought to life through décor elements that directly reflect their high-performance products and packaging.
This new space features 12-foot high ceilings, perimeter millwork, floor fixtures for displays, and a makeup counter and chairs for makeup application services. The team also installed all new LED lighting throughout the space and within millwork. The natural look of the stained concrete flooring and exposed wood are complemented and modernized by the eye-catching rear marble wall which showcases signature Hourglass products. The team was able to overcome challenges brought on by the limited, tight space with extensive communication with all parties and vendors.
