Buck Mason, a popular essentials brand based in Los Angeles, has recently opened a new store at Oakbrook Center in Oakbrook, Illinois. The store features a unique “shop within a shop” concept, designed by local architectural firm Norman Kelley. The inspiration for the store’s interior comes from the utilitarian elegance of Jean Prouvé’s 1939 military shelter, blending reclaimed oakwood with Chicago glass blocks.
The space is carefully curated with Buck Mason’s mens and womenswear collections, as well as a selection of their favorite books and sources of inspiration. Co-founder Erik Allen Ford expressed his excitement about the new Oakbrook shop, highlighting the special twist of the Jean Prouvé shelter concept and the brand’s first-ever “shop within a shop” setup. Co-founder Sasha Koehn mentioned the addition of vintage Ligne Roset Togos from the ’70s to create a cozy atmosphere in the store, inviting customers to come explore the best offerings for both men and women while enjoying a drink on the house.
