New Mykita store in Los Angeles

Mykita has opened its newest shop on the ground floor of the Eastern Columbia Building, a towering art deco landmark in the historic core of Downtown Los Angeles. Inside the curved windows and distinctive turquoise and blue exterior, the generous space and Mykita’s reduced shop design concept creates a tranquil timeout. The interior design reflects the brand’s strong interest in surface and materials with finely structured grey terrazzo flooring, rubber-coated bench tops and tempered press wood wall panelling. Custom-made, concrete monoliths from Italy are spaced throughout the shop creating peaceful areas for trying on glasses and discovering the collections, including a special edition frame available exclusively at the Mykita Shop Los Angeles: the Miki + Shades set is a classic, round aviator with an acetate front that comes with a tailored sunglass clip-on made of stainless steel in the customised colourways Nassau/Black or Antigua/Glossy Gold.
