Respect Your Universe taps LA architect for flagship design

July 17, 2013

Respect Your Universe Inc., an active lifestyle apparel brand, recently partnered with Los Angeles-based architect and retail strategist Richard Altuna to create what the company calls a "unique space that inspires passion for its brand, customer engagement and ease of shopping."

Altuna is currently developing store plans that combine technology with consumer research to create a new Respect Your Universe flagship store that is expected to open on the West Coast by late October.

"Everything we do is centered around the movement, energy and the joy of being active," said Craig Brod, Respect Your Universe's CEO. "It's reflected in every detail of our clothing. Naturally, we want our retail space to reflect our passion and be a source of inspiration for people, as well. We can't wait to see how Richard translates our brand and workmanship into a physical space that creates a transformative shopping experience for our customers."
