showroom that sells new cars, making it feel as if a buyer is making a compromise. by incorporating a sales method similar to that of an retail store,

constructed with 3 L-shaped walls, the showroom displays photos and sports equipment that remind people of going on holiday. bearing a close resemblance to a brick building, we displayed photos and sports equipment that remind people of cars that not normally visible in everyday life. a repair shop was also integrated for after sales services, where a sheet metal shop and a car wash were also built. by proposing a sense of security in a traditional second-hand car showroom, the customer can buy a car without having to feel the pressures of an un-trustworthy company.
