Project: Palate
Location: Mumbai
Status: Completed
Area: 1860 Sq.Mt.
Design Team: Jugal Mistri, Beverly Alvares,
A store for high end European furniture and their in-house brands, Palate’s design revolved around transforming the notion of the traditional shop in shop. The design intent involved developing intervention as background for the furniture to be dispalyed within. Using a monochrome palate of stainless steel mesh to set up sections within the horizontality of the building floor plate, the installation changes from vertical screen dividers to horizontal shelving encompassing space while dividing it. The translucent nature of the stainless steel screen sets up a visual detail through the moire patterns arising out of a juxtaposition of dual mesh layers mounted on 2 x 2 acrylic frames.
