The structure is framed by two three-dimensional walls, distinguished by the intersection of the modular grooved surface and the linear or asymmetrical cutouts that function as led-lighted niches for the product display. At the centre, a similarly geometrical podium is complemented with partitions at different heights and bespoke boxes to house Valextra’s small leather goods.
“The use of concrete and the rhythm of the form and texture of the partitions generate a strong contrast with much of the surrounding materials, delivering an immediate and incredible visual impact”, declared Adjaye.
