Prominently located at the luxury retail corner of Ala Moana Center, Hawaii’s premier shopping center, the Louis Vuitton Global Store is designed with a two-story glass façade containing thousands of logo cutouts of translucent textured film in front of mirrors creating a moire or shimmering effect.
To draw the customer to the second floor, the store expansion and renovation featured a 25 foot high trunk wall finished with a custom suspended stainless steel screen. A large opening on Ala Moana Center’s 3rd level was cut to install the modern glass-rail and stone-clad staircase. A state-of-the-art LED video tower presents the latest collections and adds a 21st century touch to the heritage brand. Custom display cases were designed to exhibit the new watch collection. The entire store was finished in Venetian Plaster to complete the atmosphere of ultimate luxury.
