It’s expected that Cartier -- renowned the world over as the pinnacle of luxurious design -- would engage only similarly exemplary artists and craftspeople to construct and furnish their many retail outlets throughout the world.

The showcase that is Cartier Costa Mesa can only be described as “a love letter to artists and craftspeople” to quote our own Kelly Marshall. The site’s quality of design and keen attention to detail is second to none. The blending of materials, textures, and colors into a harmonious but not overbearing presentation is genius. The results are undeniable.

Palladio GFRG played an important role in the completion of this project, working closely with the Cartier’s design and project management team to produce and install key GFRG elements. John Purcell, our founder, worked with his team, meticulously sculpting and modelling the drapery-inspired facade, the bay leaf columns, and other sculptural elements. Palladio GFRG’s installation crew worked tirelessly to ensure the project was delivered at a standard on par with the client’s reputation.
