As promised, here are more detailed photos from our trip to Terrain yesterday, particularly of merchandise and display. For even more, you can see the full set of images right here. I am in LOVE with the punch metal lanterns shown above...they are even more beautiful in person and at night! sigh...

i love it. we have to go the next time i am in philly. are they opening in nyc?

Amazing. It's as if they should be charging an admission fee!

hey courtney...everything in between...some pieces are as low as $4 for a card, $18 for a vase, $30 for beauty care...those punched metal lamps are in the high $400's i think..and then there are pieces all the way up to $8,000.
there are definitely some smaller accessories and pieces that are reasonable but not cheap. but also a lot of found and imported items that are definitely expensive.
beth/woman...more locations in the works, but nothing announced yet! you will have to come here to this one in the mean time ;)
best!

Wow what a beautiful place! If I didnt live so far away i'd definitely take a visit.

A million thank you for this virtual visit. It's nearly killing me that I can't go there myself.

Thanks for these photos of the place Joy. Are there any plans of expanding to the west coast as of yet?

Oh my! It looks amazing!!!
So did you buy anything?
Posted by: Maria | May 02, 2008 at 06:09 AM
It's a bit frustrating that there is so little information online... I'm surprised by that. Why no elaborate website? Too soon?

It's KILLING me this is all the way across the country - I hope they are wildly successful and they open one in California.
In the meantime thank you for the photos.

oh I want to go! I was just in Philly to a few weeks ago. Maybe they will open one in New York soon. Anyone know where the next one is supposed to open?

I love the lanterns and the tree-trunk table stand. I have to say I am pleasantly surprised that this shop is on the east coast - usually all these great places are always in California. How nice to have a great style source out our way for a change!
Posted by: Robin | May 04, 2008 at 09:53 PM
oh thank you for this!! really, it's killing me that it's so far away, I even just blogged about it a few days back. Your pics will have to satisfy me for now, all that gorgeous greenery, love it!

Nice coverage and photo gallery. I posted about your coverage on PSFK here: http://www.psfk.com/2008/05/urban-outfitters-opens-garden-center-in-philadelphia.html.
I'll have to plan a trip down from NYC to have a look for myself. Thanks for sharing this.

Great photos of Terrain on your gallery. The Terrain merchandising style seems similar to the Smith & Hawkens look. I was disappointed to not see pictures of what their green goods departments look like... I wonder if they notched it up as well, or stayed with the traditional outdoor merchandising look of trees & shrubs? I was expecting to see more in that area if they really want to stand out in the marketplace. Gifts are great, but the plants make a nursery.

hey garden guy,
there was a TON of outdoor merchandise and green goods. it just happens that i took more photos of the inside then outside.
best!

Ah! Looks so nice, I was supposed to visit on Sunday, my friend Adam worked on the merchandising. Looks great, can't wait to see it!

The food at the cafe is worth the trip alone. The whole experience was amazing. Can't wait to take my friends out to lunch. Everything was so fresh and well I'll just say it...PERFECT. Thanks for a wonderful time.
