JSW Paints Store Design & Experience:
Designed in collaboration with retail design studio FRDC, JSW Paints Colourvista Senses was conceptualised to have an urban home-like look and feel. Designed on principles of Human-Centred Design, the approach was led by extensive research and understanding of Indian consumers' need, mind journey and how they choose paints/colours for their homes. Spread across a compact apartment size of space, the store layout metaphorically represents core spaces of a home like living room, kitchen, bedroom and balcony. The store design is flexible and scalable to adapt to smaller and bigger dealer stores.
BAGH Store Design & Experience
Designed by FRDC in collaboration with StoryStudio, the newly opened Bagh flagship outlet’s design language intends to speak the story of the craft. The overall ambience mimics a silent space where one can focus on intricacy of the craft techniques and explore styles gradually meandering between zones. Natural & local materials have been used that celebrate Indian craftsmanship. Overall, Bagh’s store design tells the story of humble designs elevated to become aspirational.
