About J1M5 Boutique Design de Interiores de Boutique

A J1M5 Boutique é o interior de uma loja de moda multimarcas com 266 metros quadrados em Qingdao, na China. A mala de viagem é o conceito condutor do projeto. Os armários giram 360 graus no plano horizontal e podem ser abertos e fechados livremente, de modo que cada módulo pode funcionar como coluna, arara de roupas, guarda-roupa, provador ou vitrine. Movimentar os armários altera o layout e os percursos da passarela, liberando área de piso para eventos pop-up e pequenas coletivas de imprensa. O teto é feito de microcimento e aço inoxidável e oculta os trilhos de movimentação, a iluminação e o ar-condicionado.

2. The ceiling integrates with complex systems, including cabinet moving tracks, spot lighting and air conditioning systems. The ceiling is made from micro cement and stainless steel.
3. The lighting design shows a combination of ceiling light board and PC frosted materials.
Design Challenge
The ceiling is characterized by a sense of order and an structural aesthetic. It hides complex systems behind, including lighting, fire prevention system, and cabinet moving tracks, which are coordinated and integrated into a whole.
Research
Cabinets are made capable of rotating 360 degrees at horizontal level. Therefore, adjustment of a single structure will lead to the change of the entire space. Each combination of structures is a new presentation of functions and visual effects.
Inspiration
Based on the prototype of a single suitcase, various ways of use were worked out to satisfy different functions. It can be a column, a rail, a wardrobe, a fitting room, or even a display window.
This is a space with changeable structures. It can be either empty or full of columns. Various Associates broke the conventional imagination of all kinds of stores, and created a distinctive retail space for J1M5 based on functional demands and subversive design approaches.
Project Duration
The project started in April 2020 and finished in October 2020 in Qingdao, China.
Operation Flow
The position of columns can be adjusted to generate different catwalk routes and spatial patterns, so as to meet varying demands for catwalk shows. Columns are moved to two sides and combined as a matrix. In this way, the usable area of the space is maximized to serve a wide spectrum of events, such as pop-ups and small-scale press conferences of brands. All other functional areas in the store are distinctive and cater for daily shooting needs.
