An independent shop of self-portraits in Albemarle Street, London, designed by Casper Mueller Kneer architects. The store, which has 233 m2 of space, is set over ground and lower ground floors and offers a sequence of spaces flowing into each other, creating zones with distinct spatial and material qualities.

Custom terrazzo floors with pink and white marble inlays add texture, pattern and subtle femininity. Set on the ground and lower ground levels, it provides a series of Spaces that flow together, creating areas with unique spatial and material qualities.

Three design elements define the space - the custom designed terrazzo flooring with pink and white marble insets, the open grid ceiling which creates a continuous, luminous horizon, and the dark and heavy Cornish mineral clay render, which is applied to all wall and ceiling surfaces.

Simple geometric forms structure the spaces: at ground level, two semi-circular metal screens with coloured aluminium inlays provide the hanging rails as well as visual shelter, and at the lower floor the main space is shaped in the form of a triangle.Smaller ante-rooms with deliberately odd geometries are located off these main spaces. Two staircases allow a playfully loop of discovery through the store.
