Project Overview
2025
Design Concept
The space honours the brand's Indian artisanal identity while embracing a contemporary, globally resonant aesthetic.
The design team drew from the principles of Wabi Sabi i.e. finding beauty in imperfection and natural transience and layered these with distinctly Indian material references: terracotta, handcrafted pottery, stucco plaster, and brass.
Design Approach
The architectural language is one of soft, sweeping curvilinear forms. Undulating walls flow seamlessly from floor to ceiling, dissolving hard edges and creating a cave-like warmth that envelops the customer from the moment of entry.
The journey unfolds organically. The floor plan is thoughtfully zoned - from the entry and display corridor. The main retail floor anchored by a central mannequin podium, to a dedicated trial lounge at the rear. This encourages exploration and discovery.
Details
A striking oval lit ceiling crowns the main retail floor, anchoring the central display - terracotta brick platform that serves as the visual and merchandising heart of the store. The material palette is deliberately restrained yet richly textural. Gold-finish brass is used consistently across all metal fixtures, adding warmth and a refined Indian accent throughout.
Arched wall niches display terracotta pottery as decorative objects, reinforcing the Indian craft narrative with a curated, gallery-like sensibility.
