Design Details

Unique Properties
The products are attractive because of its simple and elegant appearance. To suit for the products now and later, the space mainly use color black, white and grey. By using basic color, simple line and lighting effect, instead of stealing the show, the space brings the most suitable background to the products.
Inspiration
Considering that the products are elegant with its simple line and color, and it might be renewed every season, the space should be designed not only for the products in present, but also for the new products in future. Moreover, the store would be in an old building, which has lots of huge windows that bring much natural light. Owing to above concerns, designer tried to take advantages of building rather than adding too much unnecessary materials to create the space.
Challenge
Integrating original building structure, design concept and product to present in the most proper way. Adjustment for the light and shadow, and planning smooth traffic flow
Project Duration and Location
The project started in October 2019 and finished in June 2020.
