Myth + Symbol

Sisters and co-owners, Trang + Chau

My heart always skips a beat when there's rumor of a new boutique popping up in Houston. I've had my eye on this one for quite some time. With a dream roster of up-and-coming independent designers and cult favorites, it was hard not to follow the shop's progress through Instagram and Facebook while awaiting its grand opening. Apparently, I was not the only one looking forward to its arrival, as the cozy space was quickly filled with excited and wide-eyed shoppers looking to find that special piece.

From the pinwheel display case as the centerpiece to the geometric dressing rooms accented with hand dyed rope, the shop is thoughtfully designed and a true labor of love. Myth + Symbol will not only be a hot spot for good design but owners, Trang and Chau, also look forward to converting it at night to a craft workshop and studio. Crafting while enjoying good company and being surrounded by beautiful clothing and accessories? Sign me up!

    1. Thank you so much! My sister and I worked on the design together. It was a revamp of an old design I did. My sister also helped implement the technical aspects of the icons.
