Australian lifestyle brand Kip&Co’s first-ever retail store opens this weekend in Fitzroy with four days of celebrations, offers and must-have giveaways.

Customers will have the chance to see new products, receive sought after goodie bags and vouchers, take home fresh flowers, and enter the draw to win from a $5000 prize pool.

After crafting a colourful world online for the past 15 years, the Melbourne-born brand has decided that Fitzroy was the right place to set up their physical store: House of Colour.

‘Fitzroy has always felt like our heartland. It has this incredible mix of creativity, culture and community… that feels very Kip&Co,’ says co-founder Hayley Pannekoecke.

Designed in collaboration with State of Play studio, the store moves away from a traditional retail layout, inviting customers to move through different rooms, each with their own environment and personality.

‘From the moment you step inside, we want you to feel inspired, with a sense of wonder and joy. More than anything, we want it to feel welcoming, like you’ve stepped into the most colourful version of a home,’ co-founder Kate Heppell says.

The new store will also feature Found by Kip & Co, a collection of artisanal and bespoke pieces, personally selected by the brand’s founders on their travels.

See the full details of the opening weekend below!
