Concept:
The original Art-Deco building includes beautiful original Art-Deco detailing and internal spaces with generous proportions.
Inspired by TRIANGL’s brand story, carefree lifestyle and loving the ocean, launch a set of affordable yet effortless swimwear, the design concept strikes a contemporary balance by incorporating new design elements - the giant sand wall backdrop installation in the retail space.
For the office area, the design concept aim to create a comfortable and flexible environment, incorporating with the existing beautiful sandstone wall, I have chosen neutral colour scheme and designed a practical working space to meets the client’s needs, with pastel upholstery furnishing, natural oak herringbone hard wood timber flooring, and capsule think tank space which allows staff to have a private space at work yet more flexible.
