An excellent retail experience shall not only satisfy the visual aesthetics, it shall also sculpt an exciting atmosphere. Our design aim is to open up the store as much as possible for everyone to casually browse and have some fun.
Blending indoor and outdoor environments to create a “dynamic” sapce is a fundamental concept in our interior design projects. We aim to utilize every opportunity to evoke people’s desire for sunlight and nature. We also want to open up the store as much as possible for everyone to casually browse and have some fun.
To create a generous storefront, we have taken down all the shopfront glazing, and replaced it with public seating nooks, blurring the lines between shop and mall.
In our material selection, we aimed to showcase the unique features of each area, while ensuring coherence throughout the space. The imaging area, where color sensitivity is crucial for digital work, features a pristine white background accentuated with stainless steel, exuding a serene and high-tech vibe. While in the lounge area, natural timber was chosen for the ceiling and flooring, evoking a homely and inviting ambiance that is reminiscent of a living room.
In taking advantage of the full height glazed cladding and a tall ceiling, we captured the potential of what natural daylight can do for an interior space, and brought the outdoors in. To bring the outdoors indoors, we opted for an outdoor-inspired flooring in the form of mosaic tiles, complemented by a wooden trellis ceiling and verdant foliage throughout. As patrons strolling along inside a stuffy mall, a leisurely green oasis awaits them inside Elefoto.
Bespoke vanity tables with concealed storage space keep the makeup studio neat and tidy, while all tools and cosmetics are easily accessible when needed.
