Bakery Interior Design | Egalite | Milan | Vudafieri Saverino Partners

Vudafieri-Saverino Partners has designed the new concept for a France bakery opened in Milan. With Égalité, Tiziano Vudafieri and Claudio Saverino have put on show the savoir-faire of the French boulangère tradition. The large laboratory and oven in the main room put the work of the bakers at the centre of the visual narrative with their bread making directly visible to customers. The design combines 1950s bakery elements (the large yellow-orange polished counter, the beige tile wall) and a selection of materials that expresses simplicity and authenticity (such as the solid wood shelving) with an amused look at the iconography of the Parisian boulangerie and café with the over-the-top zinc bar.
The premises – 215 sq m - located at the corner of Via Melzo and Via Lambro – have seven windows on the street. Bright and intimate at the same time - also thanks to the original plan layout of islands with small and large tables, highs and lows, benches or stools.....more

Eyewear Shop Interior Design | JINS | Tokyo | Schemata

JINS, one of the biggest eyewear brands in Japan, commissioned Schemata Architects to design the renewal of their Ageo shop on the occasion of its 12th anniversary. The existing shop consists of two L-shaped blocks, respectively an eyewear shop and a cafe, positioned around a square courtyard surrounded by an open corridor serving as a cozy outdoor cafe space. However, the existing building was clad in wooden panels and the courtyard and the cafe were hidden from the street. We removed the exterior walls and installed Low-E paired glass to initiate the view towards the beautiful courtyard from the street, while creating an impressive display of their extensive eyewear products highly visible from the street at the same time.

The interior design was intended to emphasize the effect of exposing the skeleton of the building. New interior walls are offset from the original wall lines, finished with brick tiles usually used for exterior finishes; shelves and display furniture are designed as independent elements detached from the building. Eyewear products vary in shapes and colors, and we collaborated with the graphic design office KIGI to introduce visual elements in the shop so that the products and the space can relate to each other in a free and independent way......more

Shop & Office Interior Design | Nakagawa Masashichi Shoten Omotesando | Tokyo | Schemata

" At first I was pleasantly surprised to discover this land filled with such lush greenery in Aoyama, in the middle of Tokyo. I wanted to provide the same kind of pleasant surprise to customers of this shop, both on the first and second floors. The building stood there, simple and open towards the existing greenery, and seemed to harmonize with the vitality of the land. Respecting such surrounding environment, we tried to minimize the infill construction and composed the interior with furniture instead.

The site is located at a certain distance from the busy district, and we needed to come up with a different design from their previous shop-in-shop style. In addition, they are hoping to make necessary modifications as they go along.

Our solution was to design display units based on standard modules that can be moved and assembled freely. In order to avoid a monotonous appearance, we placed clear acrylic units in / on wooden units irregularly, while deliberately breaking a sense of stability to a certain degree. Such irregular breaks in the visual sequence create different impressions of displayed products, according to viewpoints.

There is a traditional Japanese gardening concept of the “borrowed scenery”, or using the surrounding natural scenery as the background. In the second floor office,we wanted not only to“borrow” the surrounding greenery as the background, but also tried to integrate it with the interior space by planting trees on the desks, thanks to the great help from Seijun Nishihata......more
