One Kings Lane, the digitally-led destination for making the home an expression of personal style, today announced it will expand its physical retail footprint with a third location on October 17. The newest shop, located at 25 Thomson Place in Fort Point, adjacent to Boston’s vibrant Seaport District, follows the brand’s successful flagship opening last fall in Soho and the decision to turn their first seasonal shop in Southampton, NY into a permanent retail location.
One Kings Lane Boston will open in a 3,500 square foot space on Thomson Place, a growing retail destination in Fort Point, which is a neighborhood known for its innovative design culture. Built in 1907 by the Boston Wharf Company, the industrial brick-and-beam building functioned as a warehouse before being converted to a retail space in 2016.
“We are proud and excited to bring One Kings Lane to Boston as part of our continued retail expansion strategy. This announcement builds upon the incredible customer feedback we received regarding our first two shops in New York. As a brand with a decade’s worth of customer data, we know that we have a dedicated base of customers in the Massachusetts and greater New England areas, and we can’t wait to start engaging with them in person come fall,” said Debbie Propst, president of One Kings Lane. “Finding spaces that are representative of our aesthetic and have roots in the local community has always been a priority for us. Fort Point and the Seaport’s mix of historical warehouses with modern architecture, access to customers, as well as its energetic and creative spirit makes it the perfect place for us to call home in Boston.”
Shop Experience and Design
In designing the new shop, One Kings Lane has brought the space to life by creating an immersive, realistic home environment to showcase the brand’s offerings.
The One Kings Lane shop experience has a three-part foundation:
- A localized and living assortment – The shops feature a product assortment curated to fit the aesthetic of the neighborhood and as products sell, they are constantly replaced with new and different items.
- The makings of your mix – As a brand that believes everyone has their own unique style mix, which their home should represent, the shopping experience is all about helping customers combine a range of styles and price points, the best brands, the exclusive One Kings Lane Collection, vintage and antiques, and one-of-a-kind pieces, including handmade art.
- Professional interior design services – With dedicated professional interior designers on staff, the shop will be a resource for customers and the interior design community alike, from picking out a single piece to furnishing an entire home.
