About the project (provided by the applicant)
The «Degarsan» cosmetics and personal care store is designed around two main zones: the entrance and the pause space, both formed within a compact footprint yet distinguished by a unique identity.
Upon arrival, visitors experience a sense of weightlessness, neutrality, and transparency, created through the interplay of glass, white surfaces, and the soft glow of bubble lights.
As one transitions into the pause space, the atmosphere transforms into a dynamic, feminine, and inviting environment, enriched by a peach color palette, warm wooden textures, and focused, intense lighting that heightens the sensory experience. The geometry of the space is defined by clean, coherent lines, while golden steel accents lend a subtle yet luxurious touch.
The light tones of the walls and flooring enhance the perceived spaciousness, guiding visitors on a delicate journey—from calm neutrality to vibrant energy and a distinctly feminine character.
