Designers and shoppers in Dogpatch now have a new destination for decor following the opening of a retail shop by Nicole Hollis. The storefront fills the space formerly occupied by the Anglim/Trimble Gallery at the Minnesota Street Project.

Why it matters

The retail debut marks a shift for the veteran designer, who is moving pieces previously accessible only through private commissions to a public-facing storefront. The move follows a period of gallery closures at the Minnesota Street Project that began in mid-2025.

The shop carries 200 items curated over 25 years of brand operation. The space is currently open to the public Tuesday through Saturday, 11 a.m. to 6 p.m.
