london-based firm studiofibre has created the physical rendition of the online retailer ‘net-a-porter’ in the form of a headquarters in manhattan and a distribution center in new jersey. the spaces capture the ‘moments’ and ‘settings’ that the company provides with their products. the interior re-design of the LEED certified project therefore reflects the store’s motto, displaying a strong juxtaposition between the elegant and the brash, the past and the present. pockets of classically proportioned decorated sections are held within a conteporary language, such as the angled cut on the tall doors or the wall section framed by a minimalist partition. architectural elements reflect a monochromatic theme, creating a neutral setting animated by the people and products inside.
