VIBE TWLV — an experiential retail and cultural space operated by BUYING SQUARE USA in Brooklyn's Williamsburg neighborhood — has launched SUPERNORMAL. This new ongoing series combines art, design, fashion, and retail within its 4,270-square-foot venue.
The inaugural SUPERNORMAL chapter will open on June 27 and run through July 19. It will feature VAXINE, a Seoul-based jewelry-art brand that creates sterling silver pieces using digital sculpting and 3D-printing techniques, alongside a kinetic installation conceived specifically for the Brooklyn space.
VIBE TWLV's experiential retail program is structured to pair one artist with one designer or brand per chapter. The space itself is designed with modular fixtures and digital displays that can be reconfigured for exhibitions, pop-ups, wholesale appointments, and community events. Future editions are planned at a rate of four to six per year, with each chapter intended to transform the venue into a different conceptual universe.
