Krewe, a New Orleans-inspired eyewear brand, is bringing its Krewe Tiny House concept to The Shops Buckhead Atlanta.
The 154-square-foot “mobile shopping experience” will open its doors for a limited time beginning Friday, April 20, according to a press release Tuesday.
Options from the brand’s sun and optical collections will be available.
“When it came to Tiny House, Atlanta was on the short list of cities we were interested in,” Stirling Barrett, founder and creative director of Krewe, said in the release.
“It has a similar feeling and identity that relates to Krewe’s mission of doing something unexpected from somewhere unexpected, and we’re thrilled to take the Tiny House to Atlanta for the first time.”
The showroom will be open at Center Plaza behind Le Bilboquet and adjacent to COS until May 13 and will be open Wednesday through Saturday, 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. and Sunday, from 12 p.m. to 5 p.m.
Krewe Tiny House will kick off with an opening party on Thursday, April 26 from 4:30 p.m. to 7 p.m. featuring drinks, light bites, and custom frame fittings.
New weekly frame launches will take place during Friday and Saturday happy hours from 4:30 p.m. to 7 p.m.
Not a new concept.
There used to be 4 or 5 of these on Broad Street in Chamblee, just south of the post office.
But a developer bought the tract of land, knocked them down and … nothing. That was about 10 years ago.
