Moleskine Retail Build-Out & Custom Millwork – Moynihan Train Hall, NYC
Completed: November 2023
Location: New York, NY
Project Type: prototyping, project management, fabrication, fine woodworking, finish, lighting, logistics, installation
Moleskine hired Stand and Build to manage, fabricate, and install the custom retail millwork at their new flagship store in Moynihan Train Hall, NYC. Engineered and built in our Long Island City studio, the installation includes all of the wall units, a custom cash wrap, and a central display table. Warm and earthy tones of white oak veneer and black color core are used to create custom curves throughout the commercial space.
The store is divided into distinct spaces with movable partitions to allow the space to be changed for various events. The wall cabinetry displays a range of Moleskine products; notebooks, smart notebooks, bags and accessories and writing tools. At the central table, visitors can test out the various notebooks and writing utensils. LED lights were carefully placed throughout the design to illuminate the products.
Our team managed the complex logistics of delivering and installing the custom fabrication within a major transit hub to ensure the space was ready for its grand opening.
