New concept store starting Autumn 2012 for a fashion label Global Work. Starting from reconsidering the brand’s running theme which is ‘American Casual’, we based our design on West Coast. Image of freedom, undisguised, openness, joy, peace, sunshine, breeze, which conjures up the image of West Coast together with images associated with Global Work brand such as smile, communion, oasis, natural, family, outdoor, safeness, analogue, brought us the concept of ‘crafting together a place to gather.’
