Gucci

RDC served as architect of record for Gucci’s store at the popular Americana at Brand shopping district. Architecture services included adapting the exterior of the existing high-profile space to the Gucci specifications and brand standards, working on deadline for opening date. Collaborating with client Caruso and the Gucci Italian headquarters, RDC created what is the sixth destination for Gucci shoppers in Southern California. The previous tenant had been a two-story restaurant, and RDC collaborated with Gucci and Caruso to adapt this to the retailer’s standards, expanding the ground floor space to meet Gucci’s requirements. Work was performed taking into account the structural needs of adapting the space at the ground floor and the consideration necessary for residents living above the space in luxury apartments.
