About Leding Bespoke Verkaufsraum

Leding Bespoke ist ein Verkaufsraum, der für einen Maßschneider für Herrenmode in Shaoxing, China, gestaltet wurde. Der Haupteingang befindet sich im zweiten Obergeschoss und wird über eine Treppe erreicht, die von blauem Verbundglas gerahmt wird. Im Zentrum des Raumes steht eine Skulptur mit dem Namen Time Flow, die aus 698 beweglichen Würfeln von jeweils 100 Millimetern gebildet wird. Die Wegeführung ist um Time Flow herum angeordnet, mit Bereichen für Maßnehmen, Zuschnitt und Näharbeiten. Zu den Oberflächen zählen polierte weiße Fliesen, strukturierter weißer Anstrich, schwarzes Mattmetall und weißer Terrazzo. Alte Werkzeuge und mittels 3D-Druck gefertigte Körperbüsten erinnern an den handwerklichen Schneiderprozess.

Design Challenge
The main entrance of Leding Bespoke is on the second floor, and the only way is through the stairs enter space. How to combine the entrance and the staircase was a big challenge. Therefore, the designer applied blue laminated glass at the side of stairs, and placed lots of cubes around it, makes the little cubes growing in a big blue glass cube lively. Meanwhile, it is like coming out of a blue block when consumers enter the space, which is an interesting invitation for the guests.
Research
A narrative space through objects designer found in the process of custom-made suit, and also telling the precision of measuring bodies. So they had a specific research on its process and visit suit studio, understand raw materials and talk with tailors. The designer narrating space through details. For instance, shaping a readable space by illustrations and old tools. Application of the different scales of "body" element, and design a set of movable cubes express "time flow" poetically in the space.
Inspiration
"Traces are invisible. They perceive the flow of time through objects." -Greater Dog.
It was fascinated to see different fabrics, plate making, tailoring, even old sewing machines and ironing tools, and these objects have inspired designers.
So designers brought the rough, primitive, fundamental and forgotten objects back to the modern life. Consequently, It is not just only a retail space sells a high quality suits in a fashionable way, but also evokes the memory of the process of hand made era.
Project Duration
The project started in October 2018 in Shaoxing, China and finished in August 2019 in Shaoxing, China.
Operation Flow
