In an article about a company opening a new shop for children's clothing it states:
La *tienda de imagen", que es como la firma llama a sus espacios propios, está situada ......
Any ideas what this can be 'image shop' doesn't seem to make much sense. TIA

Note from asker:
| It's not the name of the store. Guess I will go for the literal trans then, maybe they are using the word in a more poetic sense like 'imagery'..? |

: Como parece una expresión muy particular, yo también optaría por una traducción literal.

flagship store
I imagine they are talking about the flagship store. Flagship stores seem to be the preferred term by many firms at the moment - seems to be a bit of a buzzword.
From Wikipedia: A flagship store, or simply a flagship, is a main store from a retailer designed to serve a mainstream of customers. Most noticeably, flagships are found in prominent shopping districts (e.g., Ginza, Madison Avenue, etc.) that are targets for a main set of worldwide high-income shoppers. Because of this, shopping at an upscale flagship is seen as high social/economic status. Flagships are, as well, larger in retail size (bigger than its retailer's outlets and in mall stores) and hold the most volumes in merchandise. These stores become a more preferred shopping destination for the retailers' goods. Flagships are meant to overshadow its sister stores in its area.
