Neiman Marcus at Clear Fork

Alamo Architects designed a ground-up, two-story, 95,000-SF Neiman Marcus store in the new Shops at Clearfork retail development in Fort Worth, Texas. The building facade draws inspiration from woven fabric patterns key to much of the clothing the high-end retailer sells. Alamo and the precast fabricator worked closely to create a one-of-a-kind texture that evokes a sparkling white ribbon wrapping the building like a gift-wrapped package. Several of the bespoke concrete panels feature white and clear hand-broken quartz that glisten through the day as the sun moves around the building.

The anchor store of the Shops at Clearfork, Neiman Marcus opened in February 2017 to critical acclaim.
