- The Lifestyle Boutiques offers ways to incorporate apps into your own life with an emphasis on Chicago-themed apps and accessories.
- The Experience Platform is the place for the connected home, with products geared toward home security and automation, music, entertainment and automobiles.
- The Gallery features smartphone cases designed by Chicago artists Cody Hudson and Dalek.
The store will be open 10 a.m.-8 p.m. Monday thorugh Saturday and 11 a.m.-6 p.m. on Sundays.
