일본 특유의 간결함은 일체화된 벽과 진열장으로 디자인된다. 일정한 배치된 30by40 각재와 그림자는 질서정연한 단순함으로 정제된 분위기를 조성한다. 고객들을 위한 싱크의 반무광 마저 그 분위기를 함께 한다.
torafu architects have shared their latest interior design of aesop sendai in japan. having already realized a store in osaka, this one is distinguished by the slatted timber panel system that wraps and forms the walls which have been used create a warm and inviting atmosphere to entice people inside.
the store itself is compact and measures only at 6 meters by 7.8 meters wide. torafu architects left the shopfront completely open, meanwhile the product display is embedded into the panelled walls. the back subtly frames and separates the retail space and the sink.
‘we wanted the walls on both sides to characterize the space in a simple way, and thus used 30mm x 40mm japanese cedar slats to provide a deep texture with shadows.’ states the architects ‘contrary to the rafters usually seen in buildings, we chose to present the cross-grain side of the timber as the front surface, which has a more expressive texture.’
sitting at the floorplan’s heart -similar in every aesop
around the world- is a large sink made of steel. the feature allows for
private consultations between customer and staff to take place in a
single shared space.
