Unique Properties: One of the most prominent elements of the design that was designed to be specifically eye catching, is the pop colour, coral. The coral serves two purposes, it is reflective of luxury and beauty, and also happens to be a colour that few brands have adopted. The coral only makes its presence felt in the arches of the retail courtyard, the hub of DoReDo that offshoots onto its various offerings. No matter where you go in the space, you have to pass through the coral arched courtyard.
