somewhat reminiscent of kubrick’s ‘korova bar’, japanese architect and designer ryusuke nanki’s pop up store ‘milk land hokkaido’ offers dairy tasting of products from hokkaido prefecture. unlike the hot-spot from clockwork orange, the store won’t drug you but will let you enjoy a fun and modern design.

‘we thought of this place as an advertising media where people could walk in to sample the products, and designed the shop space that continues on to the ad,’ comments nanki. the giant billboard with cow print attracts the passersby attention, and they come in the shop also fully covered from floor to ceiling with black and white spots.

the cow pattern continues on to the floor where a life-size model of a cow blends in with everything around it. the semi-elliptical topping bar looks as if it had risen up from the floor with the same pattern. all the surfaces in the space are the same, making the colorful ice-cream toppings stand out.
