Fragrance Gallery Retail Store

Fragrance Gallery Retail Store is an innovative retail design concept that reimagines the traditional perfume shopping experience by integrating elements of art gallery aesthetics with interactive digital media installations. This groundbreaking architectural approach, designed by Yuan Jiang and Chen Song, transforms the conventional retail environment into an immersive, multi-sensory space spanning 314 square meters. The design's centerpiece features a striking entrance installation composed of approximately 5,000 recycled perfume bottles, creating a dynamic visual statement that serves both as a sustainable design element and a powerful brand narrative. The interior architecture is distinguished by a 20-meter irregular curved surface incorporating digital projections that display evolving perfume textures and educational content about fragrance history and ingredients. This Silver A' Design Award-winning project in the Interior Space, Retail and Exhibition Design category represents a significant advancement in experiential retail design, particularly in its approach to facilitating olfactory experiences alongside visual and interactive elements. The space is meticulously crafted to guide visitors through a carefully choreographed journey of discovery, incorporating digital installations, artistic displays, and interactive zones that encourage engagement and social sharing. Developed between August 2019 and October 2020 in Beijing, the project exemplifies the integration of new media technology with traditional retail functions, creating an innovative solution that addresses contemporary consumers' elevated expectations for in-store experiences while maintaining focus on the primary objective of fragrance presentation and sales.
