Commonplace, the latest local pop-up shop, has emerged in the Third Ward at 143 N. Broadway.

Commonplace is open Thursdays-Sundays during June. The shop features a cool inventory of premium accessories and lifestyle goods including leather wallets, backpacks, duffles, stationary and other small goods.

Founder Zach Peterson tells me that, "this month-long event serves both to help us grow our brand locally, and as a test for a more permanent brick and mortar location in the future." 

"Additionally, says Peterson, we are using part of the space as a feature spot for local designers and artists to join us in the space on a weekly rotation."

The space, along Commission Row, was designed by local designer Ryan Tretow, who built out the refined and minimal look that highlights the items nicely.   

Commonplace opened online last June and most of the items its sells are made in the USA.
