Last night was the big night: grand opening of the new RVCA store in Upper Haight. Very awesome.Handsome exterior with works in the display window by Ed Templeton and impeccably designed and outfitted interior make for one of the best retail spaces I've seen in a long time. I haven't been so impressed with a shop since travels to Europe. The octopus chandeliers and pictorial displays are amazing.
The back room serves as a gallery and houses an amazing art installation complete with rusty bike frames, surfboards, photographs and awe-inspiring paintings. Phil Frost himself was working on some canvases. Wonder what he was listening to while his hand worked the white-out pen.
