Space NK Apothecary

Space NK is a leading retailer of luxury fragrances, cosmetics and body care products that began to develop a US presence in 2006-2007, building upon their cult-like success in the UK. I worked closely with O'Neil Langan Architects to create the lighting design for Space NK's United States boutiques, beginning with a high-end flagship location that also houses their corporate offices on Greene Street in Soho.

Space NK wanted to present its customers with a lighting design that was both environmentally friendly as well as visually stunning. Discreet halogen pinholes provide a warm and inviting atmosphere for makeup consultation areas, while metal halide perimeter accents and millwork fluorescents built into the cabinetry still allow merchandise to be star. A rear lounge and private spa/treatment rooms rely upon dimmable fluorescents coves to create a relaxing, glare free environment that is complimented by candlelight.
