Founded in 2015, Away Travel creates luggage for the modern traveler while positively impacting the world. Their line of luxury pieces is made with top-quality materials, sold direct-to-consumer affordably. 

Helios managed the retail buildout for Away Travel’s Abbott Kinney location. As part of Away’s expansion from online retail into brick-and-mortar stores, they selected a renowned retail space on Abbott Kinney Boulevard, one of the leading retail corridors nationwide. Initially constructed in the 1920s, this space features an exposed wood ceiling with a large skylight, polished concrete floors, and extensive millwork finishes.
