The Next Gen Concept store is the first of many that will slowly spread across the Netherlands. Abandoning the typical corporate finishes for a more rustic, natural feel, the designers favored Dutch oak, a variety of other woods and leather to convey a modern, yet relaxing and "homey" feel. In an attempt to integrate sustainable practices, materials that were common to the location were used as well as tiles that were recovered from the historic building upon which this new store was built.
