Rangoli Exclusive
Brief About The Project
Mindful of the fact that space was leased and the business potential was good, we did a balancing act neither stint on a good retail presence nor call for heavy investment. So while the display strategies are eye-catching, portico design concepts are not permanent and while the envelope is an attention-grabber, it can be easily dismantled and carted away.
Cement panels — selected for their economic pricing and workability —have been orchestrated to emphasize and exaggerate the linearity of the fashion showroom. Space, therefore, has a relatively plain floor and a striking graphical composition of Cement panels overhead.
Rangoli’s trial room lies concealed in barcode-like wall paneling, up a flight of cantilevered treads. Within this solid, monochromatic scene, we introduced mirrored insets in small doses to add a reflective element that would capture and multiply the graphic nature of the envelope without being too in-your-face.
