bastos store v2.0​

​

given the vast area of the shed and the delimitation only by the existing pillars, we developed a program of needs that allowed to exploit the maximum potential allowed. taking advantage of the existing coverage, a black painting was applied, which extends the feeling of emptiness and freedom in the environment, creating a perfect setting for the store.

​

in the center of the store, amid the exposed furniture, a plaster structure supported by steel cables appears. this artistic installation, in perfect fusion with the dark tones of the roof, seems to float in space, creating an extra experience in the store. this artistic intervention, proposed by our office, was conceived to be a highlight within the space, a work of art amidst the furniture.

​

carefully thought out details reinforce the brutalist language of materials and the industrial essence that space explores. the apparent block under white painting, the luminaires in aluminum and steel cable profiles and the uneven display in concrete tone are examples of this, adding a touch of modernity and sophistication to the environment.
