situated on the third floor of the seibu department store in tokyo’s shibuya, nendo has designed the compolux women’s clothing shop. as the ‘contemporary luxury’ floor presents multiple brands together without a unified environment, the development bridges the overall theme by distinguishing the labels among the others. influenced by wrought iron fences surrounding parks, squares and other green spaces in european cities, the design features a modifiable plan so that the fixtures can be easily re-arranged.

to overcome cost and thickness restrictions for the flooring, ordinary plastic floor tiles are cut into different shapes, creating a variegated flooring pattern that resemble cobblestones. the vivid changing room walls are finished with artificial ivy in different hues, and the changing rooms offer simulated outdoor light as well as indoor light.

‘we created screens based on these fences, and suspended them from the ceiling as hanger racks for the clothes,’ explains nendo. ‘the screens are easy to remove and relocate, and have built-in lighting to illuminate the clothes; they come in seven different patterns, to give each brand a distinctive look. we also created ceiling-suspended shelves, as well as low floor fixtures inspired by park benches and a bench reminiscent of a fountain’s edge.’
