The article features the John Varvatos boutique in New York designed by interior designer Brady Wilcox and architect Loffredo Brooks. With only 16 weeks to transform the abandoned club into a functioning retail outlet, the team relied on instinct. Wilcox tracked down oak flooring from an upstate New York source that salvages barns and prepares the old timbers for new construction; then he developed a five-stain process that would give the new floor a dark, aged look. After that, the most important design decision was to leave well enough alone.
