F360 Architecture designed a furniture retail store in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic which focused on the following:
Art display
Contemporary Showcase Design
Conceptual Design Process
Generation of Micro Spaces
Continuous and Rhythmical Language
Defining Spaces at Floor Level
The items in the store are not just products but are treated as works of art. Suggesting a focus on aesthetics and creating an immersive and visually appealing shopping experience.
The showcase design is contemporary, indicating a modern and up-to-date aesthetic. This can include clean lines, minimalist elements, and possibly the use of modern materials.
The design process was conceptualized from “cluster cubes.” This suggests that the initial idea or inspiration came from the arrangement of cubes. The use of the term “cluster” implies a grouping or arrangement of these cubes, possibly in an organized or intentional manner.
The concept involves the multiplication of the cluster cubes in different sizes and shapes. This suggests a dynamic and evolving design language that is not static but adapts to variations in size and form.
The multiplication of cubes results in the creation of micro spaces. This can refer to smaller, curated areas within the store, each featuring a unique display or theme. These micro spaces contribute to the overall diversity and interest within the retail environment.
The design incorporates a network of grids, suggesting a structured and organized layout. Grids can provide a framework for arranging items and creating a sense of order within the space.
The design language is described as continuous and rhythmical. This implies a flow and harmony in the arrangement of elements, contributing to a cohesive and engaging overall design.
The cubes and grids are not only a visual element but also play a functional role in defining spaces at floor level. This indicates a multi-dimensional approach to design, where the spatial layout is influenced by both visual and practical considerations.
Overall, this design concept suggests a unique and dynamic retail space that goes beyond traditional furniture displays, creating an environment where the furniture itself becomes part of an artistic and visually captivating experience for customers.
