What do you love most about your offices?
"That’s easy. Coach is located in our old factory building, so there’s a lot of history here, and details that you wouldn’t find elsewhere. For example, these beautiful old doors on all the floors, skylights, and the white painted brick in the stairwells. Because we’re so far west and there are so few tall buildings near us, there are great views from every window. Lastly, we have an amazing archive right next door, with product from every decade of Coach’s existence. I can look at a men’s baseball glove from the 1950s, a tote bag Bonnie Cashin designed in the '60s, or a collaboration we did a few years ago. It’s such a valuable resource, and one that few brands have."
