more new showroom pics
I managed to get a hold of some more pictures of our new showroom to share with you. The visual/display team adorned the walls with tons of artwork, similar to the way they do the fitting rooms in all the Free People stores.
The way they work is they gather inspiration and ideas and make some sketches. The designs are all roughly planned out before they attack a wall. But then the scale is enlarged and each piece is hand drawn or painted, so each one comes out a little bit special. Here are some photos of the finished pieces!

free people and its artists are just all so great. i shopped there for the first time last saturday, and i was sincerely inspired! the dressing rooms alone are gorgeous. being an art student, i really hope that one day i'll be able to create something that will make someone else feel like i did.
ps: props on the shopping bag idea as well! i was so happy to take home a super cute fabric bag instead of a paper or plastic one :).
