Stepping into the vault
VIP rooms are no longer nightclub fixtures, as shown by the vault room at the new Louis Vuitton store in Tokyo.
Located in Roppongi Hills, Tokyo's hip USD 2.25 billion, 11.6 hectare shopping and entertainment complex, the “select- customers-only” room is a take on nearby clubs and bars. Centered on a “dance floor” (the main shopping area), the store also boasts a Bag Bar, a Shoe Salon, and a Luggage Lounge.
Vuitton steps further, though, to enhance its exclusivity and status. The store features a polished staircase that leads customers to the vault room, incorporating a wall of steel compartments resembling safety-deposit boxes. Inside the boxes are expensive watches and jewelry, making the Louis Vuitton store a precious shop, museum, club, and bank!
