The brand has teamed up with Berlin-based architectural studio AAS Gonzalez Haase for the design of the new Antwerp flagship site.
AAS have earned an established reputation for their highly innovative spatial concepts and the design of this latest store keeps the interplay between light and architecture at the forefront.
For the KOMONO Antwerp flagship, AAS emphasised their spatial language by creating a clear gallery in which the eyewear, watches and related product takes centre stage. A reduced palette of materials combined with smart use of space focuses on transmitting the light and creates an airy visual effect. From translucent to opalescent, the materials are assembled in simple and repetitive display shapes to avoid any unnecessary details. Large mirrors are separated from the main displays and convert into the large glass windows so that light naturally flows into the space and is diffracted among the displays. Bright horizontally placed ceiling lights accentuate the goods presented and further enhance this concept of spaciousness.
