The design of the revamped sneaker boutique embodies this shift offering a fresh and inclusive shopping experience. The store features dedicated sections for women and men, separated yet seamlessly connected by a perforated threshold. This design choice honors the distinct needs of all shoppers while maintaining a cohesive and visually engaging environment.
The breeze block screen wall clearly defines the spaces, yet seamlessly ties them together.
It was a priority to design a versatile space that seamlessly transitions from a retail store to a gallery or community event space. Furniture was designed specifically for the space to allow for the versatility and flexibility needed to host events and merchandise according to the latest releases.
