Nordstrom Gets Wired With More Than 125 Tech-Themed Products

Pop-In@Nordstrom explores the world of technology

SEATTLE (June 30, 2017) – Pop-In@Nordstrom is welcoming more than 125 tech-themed products to its latest iteration of curated shops, Pop-In@Nordstrom: GETS WIRED. The breadth of product handpicked by Olivia Kim, vice president of Creative Projects, spans home, fitness, health, travel, accessories, pet care, and more, and launches June 30 in select stores and online.

The first-ever, tech Pop-In shop for Nordstrom is designed to replicate the inside of a computer, giving customers the experience of stepping into a computer circuit board. The in-store replication will have a clean technical feel: an all-white environment with blue fluorescent lighting, display tables disguised as computer chips and capacitors with metallic connectors, and a circuit board floor graphic all designed by Kim’s Creative Projects team.

Celebrating the best of tech, Pop-In@Nordstrom: GETS WIRED offers a mix of retro to cutting-edge tech items. Prices range from $9.99 to $1,888.

ABOUT POP-IN@NORDSTROM

Launched in October 2013, Pop-In@Nordstrom is an ongoing series of themed pop-up shops that transitions every four to six weeks to offer a new shopping experience and batch of new, often exclusive merchandise. Pop-In takes two forms: a shop curated around a theme featuring brands across different product categories (fashion, beauty, lifestyle, home/garden, sports/outdoors, etc.), or a partnership with a single brand to bring “the world of” to customers. Pop-In@Nordstrom was built on a monthly rotation to keep customers coming back to discover new brands, new merchandise and create a fun and compelling experience in stores and online. Each shop features a mix of hand-picked merchandise spanning the high/low price range, with price points often starting at $5.

Pop-In@Nordstrom was the first initiative from the Nordstrom Creative Projects team, under the direction of Olivia Kim (Vice President of Creative Projects). In her role, Kim focuses on creating energy, excitement, and inspiration throughout the retailer’s national locations. Pop-In@Nordstrom partnerships have included: Alexander Wang, Aesop, Warby Parker, Nike, VANS, Opening Ceremony, Gentle Monster, Topshop/Topman, rag & bone, Converse, Liberty London’s Flowers of Liberty collection, curated art and housewares lifestyle brand Poketo, the U.S. debut of Hong Kong fashion collective I.T., the Italian Trade Commission, and Danish home goods brand HAY.
