Situated in a quaint neighborhood north of Ventura Boulevard in Studio City, Assembledge+ designed a storefront for McConnell’s Fine Ice Creams to reflect the craftsmanship of a family-owned ice-cream company.
Formerly a tailor and hair salon, space took over two retail front stores with the intent to become a community anchor as a farmer’s market fills the area weekly. The store opens onto the street with a large glass window and directly connects the shop to the surrounding neighborhood. Outside, a 17-foot wooden bench enhances the communal ambience, inviting the crowd to linger, and pushing the vibrancy of the store outside.
