MRQT Boutique / ROK

Posted in Design - Interior design by * FORMAKERS

Swiss architecture firm ROK – Rippmann Oesterle Knauss has completed the MRQT boutique in Stuttgart, Germany.

The store features a unique fur-like wall consisting of 22.000 wooden sticks with individual directions and of various lengths.

The installation refers to the flowing forms and delicate texture of textiles and cloth.

It creates a unique and sensational background for the fashion items displayed on the smoothly integrated clothes hangers. The flow of wooden sticks and subtle lighting frames a central full height mirror and forms a central “stage” for the customer.

Display stands and shelving in beech wood match the material of the wall installation.

Together with the minimalistic interior space featuring white walls and a grinded concrete floor, the store develops a warm and inviting atmosphere for the customers browsing through a well-curated selection of premium street-wear brands.The wall was designed using customized digital tools to master the large number of wooden sticks.

CNC-drilled holes define the individual direction of every stick installed. Only a perfectly streamlined production process guaranteed the efficient and feasible realization of the project.
