The lululemon Lab, a combined retail and design space is located at 511 West Broadway. The Lab has been open for just over a year and celebrated their first anniversary in September. Community Relations Specialist, Kim Burden, agreed to give me a tour of the store and production space. She discussed the idea behind the lab and their current projects.
