One of the biggest challenges for the commercial spacial design was to fully explore the design resources available in order to provide a sense of uniqueness and character to the proposal without setting aside specific building regulations and the strict parameters, material palette and quality standards specified by the brand.
Structural design considerations required a clear, column free layout with light aluminium work, allowing users to see through the entire store. A perimetral foundation, with insulated footings that could support the design’s four columns and beams, was built.
Low rise interior walls were chosen to give the volume a sense of lightness. The main frame structure’s function is to support the hanging 5 m x 2.5 m x 2.5 m alucobond panel built cubes, which bring colour and personality to the project while keeping the views clean. This is accentuated by the decision to hide all of the store’s installations, electric as well as sanitary, inside the alucobond covered beams.
