Adam Hayes and Mark Kroeckel, founding partners of the Openshop, starting buying their architect-approved oblong eyeglasses at Artsee almost as soon as it opened in New York back in 2003. Turns out the money was well spent. Openshop first became brand consultant for future Artsee boutiques, then was hired to design two of them.

At 500 square feet, the Miami Beach outpost really packs in creative flourishes with a disco vibe-trippy wallpaper, one-way mirrors that become transparent as customers walk by. The Artsee afer that will be back in New York. Look for a similar interactivity but a very different asthetic: an interior with the detailing of a bespoke suit, befitting a Wall Street-adjacent location.
