With new Marc Jacobs stores popping up and more slated to be completed in the near future, we thought it appropriate to shed some light on who the designer is behind the designer… When Marc Jacobs set out to open his second stand alone store in San Francisco, he employed the help of New York based architect Stephan Jaklitsch and since then, for the past nine years, Jaklitsch has been the exclusive architect for every Marc Jacobs Collection and Marc by Marc Jacobs store, sprinkling the globe with them. Each store is unique and that’s what makes them so spectacualr, every time you’re in a new city you want to see the Marc Jacobs store because you know it’s not going to look exactly like the others, it’s an experience of discovery and that’s something to be appreciated…

Here are some of Jaklitsch’s Marc by Marc Jacobs + Marc Jacobs shops form across the globe:
