Turnkey solution for US brand’s British expansion
The Agilité Solutions team was appointed by American skincare brand and facial clinic, Skin Laundry, to oversee the opening of its first freestanding location in the UK.
Managing the turnkey delivery of the refurbishment on Newburgh Street, Soho, the six-week project required the inside of the listed building to be completely overhauled in order to create the ideal high street outlet for the expanding beauty brand.
Previously ‘home’ to a menswear store, the restoration of the 690 sqft central-London property saw Agilité Solutions deliver a fully turnkey solution – including all design, permit management, procurement and strip-out of the former shop, as well as the construction, decoration and complete fit out.
The space also saw the addition of three treatment rooms, designed to offer a premium beauty experience – alongside traditional retail – at the new destination.
Gregg Throgmartin, CEO at Skin Laundry, said of the project: “Following the success of Skin Laundry’s Liberty London concession, it became apparent that we should look to open our own store in the city. The unveiling of the Newburgh Street clinic is our first ‘bricks and mortar’ occupation in the UK, and gives us the space to ensure the safety of our clients and staff, more appointment availability, easy street access, and so much more!
“Having seen some of Agilité Solutions’ work in Paris, it was clear they were the right people to create our British ‘home’. While the pandemic has thrown up challenges for businesses across the globe – not least in the skincare sector – the time has allowed us to find, design and refurbish our new home in London. We are looking forward to welcoming existing and new clients to the Soho store.”
