RETAIL STORE
COLLAGE WOMEN
2018
The second store for Collage the Shop, this time a
multi-brand luxury women’s accessories and clothing store, in a former pharmacy
in Aarhus, Denmark. The store echoes the strong geometry and minimalist aesthetic
of the first Copenhagen store, but softens the detailing to showcase
accessories and make a comfortable zone for trying on shoes or lingering. Key
features are a curved clay rendered wall that acts as a guiding line and along
with long tracks of LED lighting links the two disparate retail spaces. Boxy powder-coated
high gloss blue metal shelves envelop structural columns, picking up a color in
the decorative painted ceiling and contrasting with the muted earthy tones of
the wall coverings and rug. All fixtures
and furniture are custom designed in materials ranging from sandblasted aluminum
for the sofas and a counter and polished stainless steel for shelves. Walls are
clay rendered or clad in Steni façade pebble aggregate panels.
