1. Fashion: Cadillac partnered with the CFDA for a store called Retail Lab that will rotate designers, with a new one selected every three months. First up, Timo Weiland will bring his clothing to the space this July.
2. Art: Visionaire will curate an immersive art space, rotating artists every three months. The first show is Geoffrey Lillemon’s “Hiss Missy,” a psychedelic take on being inside the mother’s womb.
3. Coffee: Joe developed a Cadillac blend served only in the community space, which has comfy couches, Wi-Fi, and outlets on every table. There’s also a veranda with outdoor seating on Hudson Street.

Ask a Shop Clerk
Brit photographer Adam Brown opened an outpost of his swim brand Orlebar Brown (451 Broome St.).
What do you get when you pair photography with swimwear?
Images of people in fabulous places are printed on swim shorts ($345) — we have rights to the Slim Aarons archive. We test each pair in chlorine and bathe it in light to guarantee they won’t fade. We can also print whatever photo you want onto a swimsuit ($595).
Top Five
Textile designer Caroline Z Hurley (155 Freeman St.) turned half of her Greenpoint studio into a storefront selling wooden toolboxes and hand-dyed linen napkins.
“These napkins ($60 for four) are 100 percent linen and naturally dyed. I dip them in a dye, and once I lay them out in the sun, they turn indigo.”
“Now that I have a storefront, I’m going to sell things by other designers, like this beautiful toolbox ($180) by Poritz & Studio.”
“This pillow ($120) is the original design for my company. I used to be a preschool teacher, and one student loved triangles, so I started drawing them.”
“I made this as a beach throw ($140), but it also works for the couch. The more you wash it, the softer it gets, so people use them as towels too.”
“The center of this baby quilt ($250) is made using scraps from other designers. Eileen Fisher gave me old sweaters that I started to design around.”
