Client's Name
Country / Region
“Gato” is the Spanish word for cat, and the client used it as an extension of the store and the brand. In addition to being the name of the store, the word “Gato” also subtly echoes the cat paintings in the space. The designer continues the characteristics of the old house, creating a vintage atmosphere through the imitation of old, hand-painted, and rusty tracery. On the other hand, the gentle color echoes the leather goods on display in this commercial space. It seems to reveal the solidity in the delicate texture and deepens the character and impression of the products through the space. Moreover, the red elements create a distinctive space design by contrasting the bright colors with the old atmosphere, making the project unique. The goal of this renovation is to create a harmonious coexistence between the old house and the new design. Different from other commercial spaces, this project is a complex space, including a shoe exhibition and sale, coffee and dining, bar, and cigar collection. At the same time, the designer has cleverly planned the space by placing modern cat paintings from the client's collection, and the new antique elements also give the space a distinctive touch. For example, the Italian terrazzo stone in the bar, with its natural holes and matte texture, restores the timelessness of natural texture. As for the exterior wall, it is made of clay bricks to reproduce the mottled texture, thus highlighting the unique style of the store in the clash of the old and the new.
