Summer 2008
Best Sellers in Austin, TX By Lyssa Myska Allen

mercury design studio

Over a decade at GAP, Inc. as director of North American retail certainly prepared mercury design studio owner Steve Shuck to open his own boutique. A unique combination of vintage furniture and gifts, mercury design studio is a haven for special finds. A split-level store comprised of six completely changeable nooks, the personality of the shop changes often. The nooks change looks four to five times a year, playing host to a variety of items.

While the furniture anchors the store, the appeal for Shuck’s primarily young and urban shoppers are the gifts, from jewelry to silk travel bags to hand-lettered stationery. Shuck’s eye for layout and displays lends the store a hip flair.
