Words by Nerds: Pop-Up Store Expert Interview /
Oei Design prepared for the future? According to Kim, they’re exactly “what the doctor is ordering right now.” With design work in Universal Studios and Downtown Disney, Oei Design has already had plenty of experience with the idea of a pop-up store.
“Our work has often been described as entertainment retail or destination retail. We’ve been doing it.”
Looking forward, Kim hopes more property owners and commercial bankers give in to the idea of the pop-up store so that we’ll be seeing more of this constantly evolving in-person marketing tool. With the rapidly changing face of marketing, we look forward to seeing what new endeavors Kim and the rest of the Oei Design team have in store.

Now home to the consulate of Indonesia, this Art Deco building was designed as the headquarters and opulent showroom for custom-built luxury Auburn-Cord automobiles.
Owner E. L. Cord demanded polished marble floors, hardwood finishes, thirty-foot ceilings, and dramatic display windows facing onto Wilshire.
Upstairs were four levels of service departments reached by inside ramps. The top floor housed radio stations KFAC and KFVD, which had their broadcast antennas on the roof.
Cord later owned Century Airlines (precursor to American Airlines) and Checker Cab, as well as extensive Wilshire Boulevard frontage in the priciest section of Beverly Hills, where he built the Cordhaven estate. He left California abruptly in the 1950s for a new life as a rancher and politician in Nevada.
