For one of the semesters in college, I had to design a retail space.
Challenge: Find a building that inspires you to create an interesting and unique design for a retail space of your choice. Take aspects of the existing design and manipulate it to create a design of your own.
Solution: The concept for the Jade Store was surmised from the Louis Vuittonstore façade in Tokyo. The designer, Jun Aoki, placed illuminated and transparent squares all over the exterior of the building. In my adaptation of this design, the interior space is defined by a repetition of cubes. Some are used as showcases, others are display pedastals. The scattered array of these cubes help to lead the consumer through the space and define a specific path to each showcase of merchandise.
Preliminary design concepts for retail design. First model comprised of elements taken from building. Second model comprised from first model, Third and final model consolidation of first two models.
