Wanderlust+Co founder Jenn Low and interior designer Adrien Kent, on building a pop-up store together, creative trust, and reaping sweet success.
Collaborations, a.k.a. creative jamming, almost never fails to inspire brands and people behind them onward to greater things. Towards the end of last year, Wanderlust+Co launched its #WCOpopupshop in Bangsar Village, a beautiful nook that hosted a series of parties by founder Jenn Low. Needless to say, the store stole the show, as trendy guests commemorated the pink and gold-hued venue with #WCOgirlgang snapshots. Matching the sparkling Wanderlust+Co gems was a boutique with a decor narrative. So we asked - and we received - an exclusive story of how Jenn and Adrien Kent, award-winning interior designer and winner of The Apartment Season 7 Luxury Edition, embarked on a partnership that made the Instagrammable store a reality in just three weeks.
Well done on the latest #WCOpopupshop. What was it like to collaborate in a short frame of time?
Adrien: I was thrilled to have been approached for this project. I’ve never worked with Jenn before, so it was exhilarating to be able to work with a new client, especially one as vivacious as her.
Jenn: The pop-up was an unexpected project for us. Adrien Kent immediately came to mind as I’m familiar with the work he’s done for Common Ground and understand he is very creative. I dropped him a message, and we caught up over coffee and started the renovations 5 days after that first conversation.
