Quantcast
Fargo's Funky Branch
 

VISIONBank in Fargo, N.D., has converted a former restaurant into an eye-catching branch where customers are invited to sit by the fire, play with the dog, grab a soda from the fridge and make themselves at home.

BNP Paribas had a similar branch-of-the-future facing the Opera Garnier in Paris. The BNP Paribas version was, dare I say, plus chic, compared to VISIONBank ranch-of-the-future (sic).

Just seems a little incongruous to me. Home and banks just don't seem to go together in the way presented here. There is still the issue of privacy except here the other customers are warming themselves around the fire whilst listening in to other conversations, assuming they can hear above the sound of the pianist....

Hmmm.. I wish them luck but wonder whether it has delivered on the brief...
