Hudson's, Somerset Collection

Troy, Michigan

A point of reference for each level, the monumental atrium at the heart of this 300,000-sq.-ft. Hudson's includes signature lighting details and a European glass clock. Around the atrium, sleek focal walls of light wood and glass lead into designer boutiques and provide space for changing fashion presentations. Within the open plan, designer shops including DKNY are defined by wood and glass slab “theater walls” and signature fixtures. In the Oval Room, fine women's fashions are presented in a proscenium-arched space with hand-tufted carpets and pale anigre walls. The store also includes the “FYI” personal shopper service in an elegant, elliptical salon; dramatically lighted fur salon that incorporates fine furniture and museum-quality artwork; Juniors'department with a “bar-style” circular cashwrap; and Grand Cosmetics Hall with high ceilings, detailed columns, warm woods and cream marble floors.
