About The Entry

Inspired by venice, this project takes “Fluid Tailoring” as its narrative to shape a refined retail space for RARE.

The design distills the fluidity of water into spatial language, using rippled glass to create layered interplay between transparency and concealment, echoing the brand’s “double R” motif. Light oak establishes a warm, tactile base, while patterned tiles and burl wood enrich material depth. Elements such as gondolas and lighthouses are poetically embedded, with red accents activating the space.

Through modular display systems and a looped circulation, the design enhances retail efficiency while balancing commercial performance with brand sensibility—realizing a contemporary expression of the brand’s spirit.
