Retail

Conveying the brand’s character and narrative and seeking breakthroughs through the use of spatial design language, the full integration of aesthetics and commercial retail functions has been achieved. Sò Studio also echoes ZUCZUG’s philosophy of continuously providing customers with high-quality products and strengthens ZUCZUG’s “equality” and basic concepts of “life and imagination” to present a relaxed and interesting attitude towards life for all the patrons.

We took charge of the first flagship store project of LADOR, a Korean hair product brand. The client wanted a resting place in the space of LADOR where they could comfortably receive hair care. Here we proposed a space filled with architectural devices incorporating LADOR’s brand philosophy, based on a comfortable home of LADOR.

This project is a three-entrance house along the street, located at No. 129-131 Cangqian Road, Cangshan District, Fuzhou. The original building was built by Zheng Zeming, the olive king of Fuzhou in the late Guangxu period(1875–1908) of the Qing Dynasty, the first Fuzhou native to develop a variety of olive products, and known as the “Olive Five”. Thus it is also named “The Olive Five House”.

This design was for a store in Ginza, newly opened by the sweets and cosmetics brand Meet Tree. This brand is managed by a lumber company in Nakatsugawa, Gifu Prefecture.
