Architecture firm LAAB has shared photos the Cozey flagship retail store they designed in Toronto, Canada, that includes an eye-catching window showcase.
The design of the window showcase displays a giant fabric weave to draw pedestrians inside the space.
The soft fabric design encases the window display, where chosen furniture pieces are displayed on individual platforms.
Here’s a closer look at the front window showcase.
The elongated retail space changes from the front showcase window to the design centre at the end, funneling customers through successive “rings” inspired by a photographer studio’s cyclorama.
