Tis the season to retail! Forum editors have curated their favorite retail spaces from Mortarr’s Inspiration feed, starting with Do Good Work’s Clash de Cartier. We all can dream, right?!

 

What does a high-end luxury goods conglomerate do to launch two new collections? Create an immersive exhibition in West Hollywood, of course, featuring a soundscape designed by Grammy-winning musician Finneas. Cartier partnered with Snarkitecture to conceptualize the space, and design developers Do Good Work to bring the space to life for the launch of their Clash [Un]limited and Clash de Cartier collections


“The exhibition was a surreal three-part journey that led you from a distorted Hausmann apartment into a mind-bending deconstruction and eventually through faceted walls of mirror that mesmerized as thousands of polished picots bounced light around the exhibit,” says Nathanael Balon, owner of Do Good Work. “Development, production, and installation was a four-month collaborative process ultimately culminating in a once-in-a-lifetime space.”
