For Aesop, aｎ Australian skincare brand celebrating its 25th year anniversary
this year, we proposed an interior fit-out located in the Shin-Marunouchi
Building. Concurrent to this, we also designed Aesop Yokohama Bay Quarter, which
opened at the same time.
Aesop's skincare products emphasise on maintenance to restore the skin’s natural
health, and in a similar way we had chosen a key material that reflects this idea
for the two stores. OSB (Oriented Strand Board) is a wood which has characteristic
textures and patterns, and of which are accentuated are accentuated once sanded
and stained in different ways. While associated as a rough material typically used
in construction, as it is stained the wood adopts a stone-like appearance. The
result is a distinct materiality which be felt throughout the store space.
At Aesop Shin-Marunouchi, the OSB has been stained with a brown colour to
distinguish the store with its neighbours within the bright surrounding
environment. The central band of display seen stretched across the back wall binds
the store space to a single point of focus, naturally drawing customers towards
the products.
In the foreground of the shops are stand-alone functional counters that allow the
corner shop space to be freely circulated. Small stores require an efficient use
of space, so the activities essential to the shop’s operation have been carefully
considered and housed into the ‘floating’ boxes to assist in operational
processes. We thought about how the volumes of these counters can be opened at
various parts when required, and eventually closed back into a simple box.
Even located within a large commercial building, we have focused on how we can
clearly reflect Aesop’s brand image into these stores.
