Sorry Mom Store | Maria Konstantoglou

Sorry mom is a commercial store that lies amidst a condensed historic neighborhood in Larissa. The clients’ primary goal was to introduce a store that would serve three types of take away food: sweet, salty and refreshments. From the beginning of the design phase, each one of these three categories of products has been linked to a color that would later find a spatial presence in three monochromatic spaces, three “boxes”. Three façade openings give visual access to three monochromatic spaces that host each category of products. During operation hours, each opening becomes a colorful lighting box that connects the inside with the outside. When the store is closed, colored garage doors cover the openings and express the presence of each monochromatic space by becoming the “light” that shines on each facade opening. Interior design is mostly defined by the strong presence of color and the balance between color pluralism and minimalistic archetypal forms. This continuous search of balance during the design phase led to the creation of a playful, colorful and luxurious space.
