Glass façade dynamically spanning two floors has luminous reflections filled with light of Sunshine State. Wavering light with wavy façade creates illusion of movement for store display.
Behind the curtain, exhibition of Dolce&Gabbana is shown as if visitors entered a theatre. Collections are surrounded by furnishings with Baroque mirrors, counters, and walnut furniture embellished with polished steel or gold velvet. In combination with clear glass display counters and various colors of precious jewelries, the ensemble is reminiscent of the set design of a theatrical play.
The ceilings are fitted with spotlights illuminating Italian-crafted classic sculptures, which recall theatre actors who intent on playing their parts.
Those actors fascinate the displayed products like a costume for play.
The material palette of sand stones and travertines echo an Italian feeling.
It also expresses the similarity and connection with the origin of the brand.
