Abercrombie & Fitch Conference Center

Former Abercromie & Fitch mock retail stores were transformed into corporate meeting spaces, each accommodating 100-200 people. The lower level leveraged dramatic picture windows and double-height ceilings, while the upper floor offered a more intimate setting. Our biggest challenge was addressing acoustics in these large, echoing spaces, which required developing a custom system of floating, staggered wood panels that controlled sound while adding visual appeal, moving beyond standard acoustic tile solutions.

The project required navigating new building codes and seamlessly integrating IT systems to support everything from casual meetings to major presentations. We also designed a flexible modular display system for the building’s entry, working with A&F’s archivist to create repositionable boxes that showcase company artifacts and can be updated seasonally. After 20 years of partnership with Abercrombie & Fitch, we understood their need for meeting spaces that were more formal and impressive than the previous location, with new spaces designed to welcome visitors while serving their corporate team’s daily needs.
