DESIGN NAME: Youngor Fashion Concept Store
PRIMARY FUNCTION: Showroom
INSPIRATION: The original building at the construction site was a half sphere with glass facade. JFR completely demolished the interior of the sphere and built an umbrella-shaped core tube in the center. The unfolded umbrella, featuring random perforation, can offer both sufficient natural light and a desirable light-shadow effect, while the core tube has organically connected different spaces in the building in the vertical sense.
UNIQUE PROPERTIES / PROJECT DESCRIPTION: As Youngor owns a lineup of sub-brands with varied styles, attributes and target consumers, the designers applied different materials and design approaches to highlight their uniqueness, while bringing them together in a harmonious manner. Their diversified features and superior quality will surely create an impressive shopping experience for consumers.
OPERATION / FLOW / INTERACTION: The VIP lounge, cafe, Youngor Garment Museum, VR Experience Room, and Children's Play Area featured in the space are a breakthrough compared with traditional Chinese stores. These facilities make Youngor Fashion Concept Store go beyond the role as an O2O experience center, but also a VIP service center, and a communication center that spreads Younger's fashion culture.
PROJECT DURATION AND LOCATION: The project started in February 2018 in Torino and finished in August 2019 in Rimini.
FITS BEST INTO CATEGORY: Interior Space and Exhibition Design

PRODUCTION / REALIZATION TECHNOLOGY: In terms of construction materials, a large number of green materials that can grow by themselves or be recycled, such as metal mesh, plaited bamboo, and terrazzo were used to create an environment that is closest to the nature, the designers also applied luminescent films, as a way to simulate natural light.
SPECIFICATIONS / TECHNICAL PROPERTIES: The project covers a total of 5000 square meters. The stairways are arranged on two sides of the steps, separating the Thin and Light Sports collection on Level 1 and the more commercial and high-end space for brands Mayor and Hanp on Floor 2.
