PROJECT HIGHLIGHT: TRAIL SIDE INSPIRED CHALK ART + STYLING

Fall 2017 New  Store Opening project takes places in our first upstate New York location.  The store is positioned along the Erie Canal and hosts a trail side, secondary entrance.

​

Inspired by the concept of trail; the VM team worked to tie each key presentation to a local trail - using chalk art created [executed] by in-store employees. 

 

In celebration of the location and the people who inspired the art; this theme is carried throughout the store and paced in a way that encourages exploration and discovery.

CLIMB

As outdoor/indoor climb continues to grow, we discovered an incredible culture around key locations to climb and boulder in upstate New York.

​

This art install is a result of onsite collaboration between myself, a visual team leader and a team of chalk artists.  Using a stock photo, we altered the image to create an abstract outline of a female climber in an iconic pose. 

​

Similar to other locations, we installed climbing holds to allow customers to test climbing shoes.  In this location, the holds are placed as if she is using them herself. 

​

#FORCEOFNATURE and the artists signatures are hidden within the piece. 

​

This installation was replicated in Fall 2017 in the Greenwood Village Relocation/Expansion project.
