Piedmont Park Travel Mart at Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International is a new local concept from The Paradies Shops.
The one-stop-shop celebrates Piedmont Park, the city’s most visited green space, and offers news, sundries, snacks, chilled beverages, books and travel accessories, as well as apparel and gifts focusing on Atlanta and its attractions.
Inspired by the patterns of farm landscapes from above, the design embraces a grid pattern in the interior and exterior fascia that allows for local and lifestyle imagery of families and guests to the park. A wood ceiling provides the grid for the lighting package and bent wood drum pendants are clustered in the higher ceiling areas. Clear acrylic panels with tree motifs divide space and guide the customer journey.
The store’s location in the Atrium is convenient for travelers, as well as friends and loved ones that come to greet them. In partnership with the Piedmont Park Conservancy, it also encompasses and exemplifies the airport’s goal of establishing a sense of place that Atlanta residents and visitors can enjoy and a design that portrays the timeless beauty that Piedmont Park is famous for.
