The Conservatory, founded by Brian Bolke, will officially open its fourth outpost Friday in Houston’s River Oaks District, a 3,300-square-foot natural light-filled space within the outdoor shopping destination.

The brand debuted in March 2019 with a gallery in Recent York’s Hudson Yards and in addition has an outpost at Dallas’ Highland Park Village and The Conservatory on Two in Highland Park Village. Its Napa Valley, California pop-up store closed last December, as planned.

“We’re bringing recent brands, many with a give attention to sustainability and unexpected edits to Houston — a discerning city where we’re looking forward to becoming a component of the community,” Bolke said.

In 2014, Bolke sold Forty Five Ten, the Dallas-based specialty store he cofounded in 2000 to Headington Cos., and stayed on as president until August 2017. He then launched an independent consultancy, and spent the subsequent months months formulating his concept for The Conservatory.
