Our Place said its Venice Beach store is ‘filled with symbolic nods that reflect the brand’s mission around inclusion, representation and building a bigger table’.
The brand added that the store was ‘conceptualised as a place for gathering and community’.
Our Place co-founder Shiza Shahid said: “When we started Our Place, we knew it was about so much more than kitchenware.
“We wanted to create a place that brought people together over the joy of cooking, and now, we are able to bring everyone into this physical space to make even deeper connections.
“This store is truly a place by and for us and our community.”
The opening of Our Place Venice Beach marks Our Place’s expansion from direct-to-consumer to retail.
The company launched in 2019 and is planning to open its second retail location in Los Angeles later this year.
Based in London, Our Place aims to provide products to ‘make cooking and gathering easier and more joyful’, sourcing and packaging its items ‘thoughtfully and sustainably’.
