The British eyewear maker and brand has launched their first store outside of London, in the seaside city of Brighton.
Heavily inspired by the quaint and rich heritage of Brighton, the new store features muted blue walls, geometric aluminium shelves and wood cabinets. A stark and contrasting yellow floor finished the feel of a sunny beachside town. Designers, Child Studio were inspired by Martin Parr’s ‘The Last Resort’ which features photographs of Brighton.
“The interior aims to capture the nostalgic charm of the English seaside resort towns, with their
amusement arcades and kiosks unchanged since the 1970s and 80s as if frozen in time. The pastel tones and bold simplicity of those settings bring back childhood holiday memories,” commented the designers Che Huang and Alexy Kos of Child Studio.
The store is located on the corner of North Laine. Founder Tom Broughton, commented: “This feels like somewhat of a spiritual homecoming for us. We are named after the Cubitt brothers, and one of the three, Thomas Cubitt, was involved in the building of Brighton’s Kemptown area, and lived here for a while too.”
