JP architects: Le Mistral

JP architects developed the interior design of the gift shop Le Mistral spreading a white-guide-grid for display over the space, and making it as the “ornament” of the interior.

In a retail space stacking many goods – having various colors and shapes, “ways of display” determine an impression of the space to a great degree.

So, the architects decided to spread a white-guide-grid for display over the space, and made as it is “ornament” of interior.

Using auxiliary lines drawn out by existing building frame, they laid it all out to pass the white line 15mm wide to every detail such as outlines of furnitures and fixtures, shelf boards, table legs, and door frames.

Base color behind of guide-grid is navy – the signature color of the shop. It has a role tightening the space as background of articles, but wood-grain remained by permeable paint and decoration of moulding makes classic and warm nuance.
