Aristides Retail Interior
Mendoza / Argentina / 2012

Project Description: The greatest challenge faced in this project was the minimal
dimensions of available space (10ft x 20ft) and the further reduction of
this space by a utility staircase that needed to remain as access to 2nd floor
storage. Changing rooms were placed beneath the stairwell and the merchandise
counter integrated with the front end of the stair to maximize efficient
use of available space. A series of false columns divide the merchandise
display into three distinct zones as well as hiding utility service connections
and other back of house infrastructure. A mirror at the back wall creates the
illusion of depth within the space. The design solution creates a dynamic interior
space without visually overwhelming the merchandise nor the shoppers
´ experience of the space. On the exterior, a backlit, perforated metal box
covers the full height of the building´s second story to create a strong but
elegant presence to the street scape in addition to drawing attention to the
store which is located on a busy retail street.
