______The project is organized around two spaces with distinct characters. The first is a white gallery, centered around a brick-clad room designed to showcase the brand’s key collections. The second is a softer, more intimate area featuring fitting rooms concealed behind velvet curtains and a modular sofa. Its atmosphere is reminiscent of a boudoir, with particular attention given to lighting. The ceiling is articulated by illuminated coffers—light-filled square recesses with a subtle industrial character that provide soft, diffused illumination.

______A key element of the design is the system of platforms, which structures the interior and defines its three primary zones: the entrance, the showroom, and the fitting rooms.

______The existing space presented several challenges, including varying window heights and an irregular column layout. One of the columns became integrated into the brick room, transforming it into a distinctive architectural feature and a dedicated space for the brand’s archive. Working with changes in floor level also helped incorporate the windows into the spatial sequence and activate previously underused areas.

_____Lighting was given particular attention throughout the project. For the first time in the bureau’s practice, ceiling-mounted lightboxes were introduced, reinforcing the spatial zoning while creating soft, even illumination. The fitting rooms feature a combination of lighting sources that minimizes shadows and provides a more comfortable environment.
