The inspiration for the Natick Neiman Marcus was a dress designed for the architect’s wife: a dress soft in image and form, with bronze skin tones and elegant highlights of champagne and silver. Equally important to Neiman Marcus was the desire to unite its clientele with the native New England landscape of birch groves, sea grass and the Atlantic Ocean. The design team found their solution with Pilkington Profilit™ cast-glass channels from Technical Glass Products. In honor of the building's outstanding design, Chain Store Age magazine named the Natick Neiman Marcus as "Retail Store of the Year."
