About Scentbon Perfume Interior Ornatus Tabernae Venditoriae
Scentbon Perfume est taberna unguentaria Taipeiensis, in una ex antiquis urbis regionibus mercatoriis sita. Ianua anterior ferro et ligno facta est, quae interiora moderna cum via exteriore coniungit. Fenestra tabernae lucem naturalem intro admittit. Ansae et titulus e chalybe speculari facta sunt, quod lucem et ramos arboris Frangipaniae in horto anteriore stantis reflectit. Duo pegmata chalybea perspicua plus quam ducenta quadraginta unguenta ante parietes latericios pristinos ostendunt. Res facile moveri et permutari possunt, ita ut emptores et ministri omnem mercem directe attingere possint.

- Unique Properties
- The fragrance store in Taipei is owned by two female founders and features a modern design that incorporates the city's history. The iron and wood front door connects the indoor area with the streets outside, and the shop window allows natural light to flow into the store. The iron handles and signboard reflect the light and the branches of the Frangipani tree in the front garden. The store showcases over 240 fragrances on two showcase shelves made of stainless steel, situated in front of the original brick walls. The shelves are see-through, creating a transparent display.
- Dimensions & Packaging
- The manufacture and installation of the showcase shelves.
The shelves on both walls are Width 6000mm x Depth 500 mm x Height 2000 mm. - Tags
- retailspace, showroom, store, shop, retail space,
- Production Technology
- The product has two main theme walls to display fragrance products. Items can be moved and placed easily, which makes picking and placing items easier for the consumers and staff. The shelves are see-through shelves, and behind the transparent shelves are the original brick walls. The design wants to bring the history of the space into modern design.
- Design Challenge
- The design had to keep the original building but at the same time bringing a new style to the place was challenging.
- Research
- The store is located in one of Taipei’s old business districts. The front door is made of iron and wood to connect the modern style design of the indoor area and the streets on the outside.
The store’s shop window captures natural light into the store. The handles and signboard are also made out of a stainless mirror, which reflects lights and the branches of the Frangipani tree in the front garden. - Inspiration
- Inspired by the pairing of breathing inhales are always followed by the exhaust, and breathing brings sense into our cells. The designers used the two showcase shelves to present human breathing in and breathing out.
- Project Duration
- The project was finished in 2022 in Taipei.
- Operation Flow
- The design changes the way people shop in a fragrance store. In Taiwan the way luxury brand shops are designed often makes shopping for products hard, consumers have to ask for ascents from staff members to reach each item. However, our design gives people more space and more control over how they would like to shop.
