The red, white, and blue Tommy Hilfiger logo is recognized the world over by those who favor premium goods over bargain store choices. The corporation named after the gifted fashion designer that founded the brand sells a plethora of goods, including bedding, handbags, shirts, kid’s clothes, and of course jeans.

To maintain the chain’s high-end image, the stores that house Tommy Hilfiger merchandise also need to be appealing and chic. When the time came to perfect the look of the flagship store in trendy New York City, the designers chose StonePly to create a memorable first impression.

The Project

The Tommy Hilfiger store in New York City featuring StonePly panels is found on Fifth Avenue. Five stories tall and boasting 22,000 square feet of space, it is the largest location in the chain. StonePly supplied limestone stone cladding panels for the storefront as well as natural stone ceiling panels.

In addition to their fantastic looks, StonePly’s limestone panels also have a number of practical benefits, including their high flexural and impact strength and their resistance to shattering. By choosing StonePly, the designers of this Big Apple flagship store were able to get an extremely durable cladding without sacrificing aesthetic appeal.

A retail storefront featuring expansive windows and natural stone

Many probably believe that when it comes to retail establishments it’s what’s on the inside that counts. While it’s true that the services and products offered by a business are the keys to its success, the importance of first impressions should not be overlooked.

For clothing boutiques, fine dining restaurants, shoe shops, and other types of stores, an attractive and enticing storefront is one of the most effective ways to elicit a favorable initial response. This can mean the difference between a customer entering the business or walking by.

Because of its elegance, timeless appeal, and stylish good looks, natural stone is a favorite choice for high-end retail storefronts. With StonePly natural stone cladding, marble, granite, and limestone storefronts can be created quickly and affordably.

Why StonePly for Retail Storefronts?

Using solid stone slabs to create a retail storefront is a labor-intensive and time-consuming process that is often costly and can also result in prolonged downtime (and lost revenue) for the business. Installing StonePly natural stone cladding panels is a much different and overall much simpler process for the following reasons:

• StonePly natural stone panels are a fraction of the weight of solid stone slabs
• StonePly natural stone panels are very durable and shatter-resistant
• StonePly natural stone panels can routinely be installed over existing cladding

StonePly Options for Retail Storefronts

At StonePly we strive to provide all clients with the exact stone, finish, and form they need. Large natural stone panels or smaller square or rectangular tiles can be created. Available finishes include polished, honed, and velvet. You can also choose from thousands of natural stone options. We have the ability to source natural stone from all over the world. Varieties we’ve used in the past to create natural stone retail storefronts include sleek academy black granite, luxurious travertine, and Indiana limestone.  Many different colors of granite as well as onyx, marble, alabaster, slate, and other stone varieties are also available.
