SPAD702 project- "Canvas"
I envisioned "Canvas" as a blank slate, crafted to reflect the unique stories of each customer. Inspired by The Adventures of Tintin and the "Ligne claire" style, I transformed the retail space into an open comic canvas, where visitors could step into their own narrative. I designed the outer wall as the main canvas, while the windows served as panels framing each customer’s journey. As they explored the space, I wanted them to feel like protagonists in their own story, creating memorable moments through interaction and discovery. My goal was to elevate the retail experience into a form of storytelling, where each individual could paint their own journey on the store’s canvas. By blending functionality with artistry, I sought to make each visit a unique narrative, offering customers a space for self-expression and a memorable, immersive experience.
