Not only Bape, Colette and Uniqlo have been working with Japanese architect firm Wonderwall on their store build-outs, but also A.P.C. worked with them now for the second time and they have recently completed the Kita-Aoyama store, which we can give you a detailed look at here.

“ The concept behind this second project with A.P.C. located in Kita-Aoyama is a bungalow style house. The terrace-like entrance and façade breaks the conventional formula of retail store spaces where the focus is about the presenter and the viewer. The store is designed to encourage the interaction between the “A.P.C” brand and the “guests”. A calm and soothing environment give the impression of a familiar place that may have already existed for years. This was created by the choices of materials and how they were incorporated in their use.”

A great turn-out and actually for Wonderwall a bit of a change, as their usual interiors are more modern and much colder. The contrary is true here – a warm and relaxed atmosphere.

Take a detailed look inside the new A.P.C. Kita-Aoyama store after the jump.

Following the successful summer launch of Nike Sportswear’s first stand-alone retail location in New York’s Soho district, today Nike Sportswear announces the opening of its Hong Kong store, located at 7-11 Pak Sha Road, Causeway Bay.

Opening on October 25th, the new store is the best destination for Nike Sportswear in Hong Kong. Special ranges available include: NSW, the pinnacle apparel collection within the Nike Sportswear line; exclusive seasonal Tokyo initiated-and-designed products; and a well-curated selection of eight iconic Nike products that blend sports heritage with design innovation: the Air Force 1, Windrunner, AW 77 Hoody, Nike Dunk, Air Max 90, Eugene Track Jacket, Cortez and NSW Tee.

To pay tribute to Nike Sportswear and the legacy of Nike design, three of Japan and Hong Kong’s most “iconic” contemporary artists have each created an exhibition installation, collectively titled “iconoGRAPHIC,” for the new Pak Sha Road store.

Japanese photographer Keiichi Nitta, who studied under Terry Richardson, has snapped a four-part visual series featuring four young Hong Kong athletes: national basketballers Law Yee Ting and Lee Kiu Fung, Olympic swimmer Stephanie Au Hoi Shun, and national beach volleyballer Sonia Kong Cheuk Yee. The second installation was created by Japanese artist Satomi Mizuuchi, most famed for her sewing craftsmanship, who honored the Nike Windrunner in her specially stitched work. And thirdly, adding sensory dynamism to the mix was Hong Kong’s Silly Thing agency, who re-interpreted the Nike Sportswear concept into a high-definition animation video.

The store interior is looking nice and you can be sure that lots of great product will be getting in there in the coming months. Also the various high profile art installations make it well worth a trip.

A new retail outlet has recently opened in the UK – Heartless. The store houses labels including YSL, Balenciaga, Yohji Yamamoto and also more directional brands including Mastermind Japan, new label by Greg Chiat, The Elder Statesman, Dr Romanelli (UK exclusives), Drestrip and many more.

They also sell designer furniture and lifestyle products by Assouline, Ruby Helmets and the gorgeous grooming line Santa Maria Novella. The store exhibits and sells urban art by D*Face, Pure Evil and Swoon and music is provided by the legendary Rough Trade.

Their VIP service AKA ‘ The Black Service’ is a real talking point. The client is picked up in one of Heartless’ fleet (cars include a matt black Lamborghini through to a classic VW Camper Van!). They are then transported to the store and are met by a personal shopper who will take them through the collections and offer advice but not before a good, cold beer has been consumed! After shopping they are dropped off at their destination.

The interior design is gorgeous. A nice mix of modern furniture and antiques gives the store a warm atmosphere. In terms of brand line-up and selection there are not many stores around the globe that we can compare Heartless to. The ones that come up when thinking about it are maybe Apartment Berlin and Maxfields L.A.

If you are in the UK, do not miss out checking Heartless. If you are not, then make sure to have a look at their online store, which carries most goods that are in store.

After the jump many more images of the interior of Heartless.

UK artist Banksy once again surprises by opening quietly in New York these past days the “Village Pet Store And Charcoal Grill” store front.

“There are no puppies or kittens in the windows here. Instead, a live leopard lounges on a tree in the window. McDonald’s Chicken McNuggets sip barbecue sauce. A rabbit puts on her makeup. A CCTV camera nurtures its young. Once inside Banksy’s pet store, you discover such things as breaded fish that swim in a large round bowl while hot dogs are living the high life under heat lamps in cages near the cash register.

A clear departure form last year’s behemoth show in Los Angeles, Banksy’s first ever show in New York City (the others have been fakes) is being held in a tiny storefront that’s less than 300 square feet and can’t hold more than 20 people at any one time.

One of our favorite things about what Banksy has done is that the entire show is completely visible to the public both day and night through the store front windows. And unless you’re a hard core Banksy fan, or until someone like us tells you, it’s absolutely impossible to know that the work has been done by Banksy. There are no paintings or graffiti in the entire space.” Via Wooster Collective.

Banksy strikes to impress once again. The store is located at 89 7th Avenue between West 4th and Bleeker Street in the West Village of New York City. Should you be in the are make sure to pass by.

After th jump more images of Banksy’s “Village Pet Store And Charcoal Grill” as well as a video.
