The Store was designed to highlight the beauty and perfection with which Lolitta’s clothes are made. We started with the idea of creating a space without excesses, where the clothes become the protagonist. For this purpose, the project is entirely done in a single color and the same tone of light, generating a certain sensation of virtual reality.

Les Nouvelles Galleries / Manuelle Gautrand Architecture

October 25, 2023 Paula Pintos 0

The Galeries Lafayette department store building in Annecy is one of those unexpected, almost insolent pieces of architectural heritage within an otherwise relatively homogenous town, notable for its unique history. Designed in the 1970s, the building was erected on the site with no awareness of its surroundings, heedless to context, form, alignment, or density.

Avgvst Jewelry Berlin / Crosby Studios

September 19, 2023 Valeria Silva 0

The store features a retail space, a tattoo studio, and a secret garden. New Avgvst space is built around the concept of a “dark kitchen”: one that operates solely for delivery and takeaway orders, without a physical space for customers to dine in. There is a lot of manual labour and attention to detail, just like in making jewelry. Avgvst and Crosby see it as a wandering, nomadic shop put together from scratch, so the “upcycling” philosophy came naturally for the new space. Office blinds were repurposed as wall finishing materials, while foldable camping chairs and tables took place of “permanent” furniture, and restaurant equipment was transformed into display cases.

Rock&Ride Shenzhen MixC Popup Store / Within-Beyond Studio

September 5, 2023 Pilar Caballero 0

The architectural design inspiration for this project originates from the heavy industry domain, drawing from fuel towers and jet propulsion systems, with a focus on the dynamics of “energy storage” and “ejection.” It translates into a symbolic architectural space using concise language, aligning with the core spirit of the American retro jewelry brand Rock&Ride. The design is rich in passion and power, symbolizing the infusion of continuous energy into the free riders. The breakthrough in the context of block-type commerce lies in the open embrace of urban space, creating a favorable urban living experience. Simultaneously, the construction of the architectural image must strike a balance between artistry and mass appeal, allowing for a distinctive commercial space that can amplify the brand’s voice and inject new vitality into the urban landscape.
