Design & Color Awards - 2018

The ordinary hardware is chaotic, incomplete and ever-changing. The intention here was to retain the aforesaid, and introduce ‘organized-chaos’. ‘Adaptive/expandable interior’ was the concept that molded the space into a robust chamber. Brick, salvaged wooden pallets, pinewood timber counters in combination with GI pipes was the material combination utilized. GI was used as an adjustable structural element, while pinewood and used palettes were employed for shelving. The GIpinewood centerpiece-counter serving customers offers an engaging purchasing experience.
