A specific colour invades and defines the walls — a neutral shade hovering between green and sky, cerulean blue — in an effort to unify the space and become the ideal backdrop for all the diverse, eclectic brands present in the store.
In the centre of the space, two large busts are revealed, facing each other. "These give the space a touch of irrationality," states Studio Novembre, "and allow visitors to wonder and question their own origin." The designers sought to create two figures that evoke the figure of the sphynx, "halfway between science fiction and archeology", in order to give the space a timeless aspect.
