Focused on the contemporary lifestyle with the concept of living with more identity, the curation developed by lab.o, our laboratory that creates experiences for brands, translates the identity of an attuned public that materializes in architecture, design, interiors, furniture, and objects that complete our design concept store.In the main axis of the showroom, a spiral staircase carved in metal connects the ground floor to the mezzanine, reinforcing the concept of integration and sensorial experience.The concept store brings a new way of communicating with the public. Through a dynamic retail experience, the design of the store allows an immersion of the products through the proposed scenarios that remain in the minds of consumers, emphasizing the purpose of the design: the true connection with the user. “The purchase decision does not come only from the product, in our proposal we recreate environments that we want customers to feel in their homes.”Text description provided by the architects.The architecture studio archi.lab signs folio concept store in Londrina-Paraná, Brazil.Through neutral and natural colors, innovative materials, and textures, the minimalist space allows each product to demonstrate its uniqueness.
