California Eyewear Duo Open in “Music City”
1st August 2012 Nashville is the trendy American city affectionately known as “The Music City” and is the delightful setting for the chic, new boutique opened by Barton Perreira. Certain areas of Nashville are so sought after, that Bill Barton commented: “We were on a waiting list for two years to get this particular street, and we are very proud to open in Nashville. It’s an exciting city with old world charm and soul. The city offers so much diversity – music (ALL TYPES!) arts, food, great colleges, etc. Nashville seems to be a place more and more people are attracted to, because it’s a great place to live. We are also very fortunate to be partnering with opticians Inga Brittingham and Carla Carpenter. The girls make buying eyewear a fantastic experience. They have a great eye for what looks good, and they are both accomplished opticians.”
The shop is located in the centre of Nashville’s luxury shopping district, where many unusual restaurants and bars can be found, and attracts local residents, as well as international clientele. Architect David Spinelli, who also created the Aspen, Colorado store Barton Perreira opened last year, designed the Nashville boutique as well. “We chose to work with David again because he intrinsically understands the brand and our design philosophy,” Barton says. The interior of the boutique is open and airy, with beautiful wood and streamlined displays for the Barton Perriera collection. Inga and Carla add: “We make fitting eyewear fun and love to make our clients feel at home. But best of all, we love to see them in beautiful frames!” Barton Perreira Green Hills Nashville, TN 37215 www.bartonperreira.com JG
