Warby Parker Flagship Store
We're huge fans of Warby Parker's glasses — we use them at the computer, out on the town, and basically everywhere but the shower. But up until now, most folks had to order them online, and do a bit of trial-and-error to find the frames for them. That's all about to change with the new Warby Parker Flagship Store. This expansive SoHo space boasts 15-foot ceilings, a 20-foot-wide skylight, terrazzo floors, rolling library ladders, a photo booth, plenty of reading materials — the place is modeled after a library, after all — and tons of glasses, ready to be picked up, tried on, and gazed upon in one of the myriad mirrors. Of course, an optometrist will be on hand for those who need new prescriptions, while sunglass buyers can walk directly out the door wearing their new shades.
