About Sense of Forest Perfumery Supermarket

Interviews

Design Interview

What is the main principle, idea and inspiration behind your design?

The project was based on the image of a translucent winter forest. The lattices of the ceiling which are offset relative to each other create a structure like the crowns of larch covering the sky.

What has been your main focus in designing this work? Especially what did you want to achieve?

I needed to create a feeling in the viewer, but not draw a direct analogy.

How long did it take you to design this particular concept?

It took seven months to create the concept and build it.

The suspended ceiling consists of two gratings, covered with natural ash veneer, offset from each other by 6 degrees and hanging at different heights. Round columns in a wooden lath pierce the ceiling like tree trunks pierce the crown. The cash desk area made of natural granite extends with two broken lines into the depth of space. Onyx and granite countertops, five-meter slabs of African wood saturate the space with the sounding of natural textures.

The total area is 1238 sq.m.

Production Technology
Main construction materials: hot-rolled steel, tinted stainless steel, granite, onyx, ash, African wood
Design Challenge
The aim of the project is to create an environment that immerses the viewer in a stream of plastic and visual impressions of the signs of nature. The industrial type of equipment made of hot-rolled steel of different sections is softened by the abundance of textures of natural wood, which defines an associative series of natural rather than industrial landscapes.
Research
The signs of nature, which became the basis of this project, were intended to soften the urban intensity of the environment and make the store a place for a pleasant pastime and relaxation.
Inspiration
The winter crowns of larch trees, forming a translucent arch of many intersecting branches, the columns of trunks lifting these crowns, were the inspiration for this project and became the main idea of the structure of the suspended ceiling.
Project Duration
The store is located in the business center of Moscow. The project was completed in 2018.
Operation Flow
The store is a place of attraction and communication for more than 2000 people daily. Presentations of new products in the field of perfumery and cosmetics, master classes of famous makeup artists are held here. Make-up artists and cosmetologists share their professional skills, train, put on makeup and just talk with customers.
