Based on the concept of "cosmetics intelligence agency", the design team depicted H.E.A.T as a sophisticated agency dedicating to collecting the latest cosmetics intelligence and presenting qualified products to customers after carefully monitoring and screening. Customers can independently perceive and obtain cosmetics information they need while visiting the store. More than a retail store, the space also provides novel scenes that enable customers to explore freely. The space utilizes a variety of materials flexibly. The appliance and recombination of different materials creates a rich sense of layering in the overall space and functional areas, which also creates different experience rhythms for customers. The original space featured deep L-shape with the retail area located near the end, which was not conducive to customers' in-depth exploration. Referring to the space characteristics of "intelligence agency", Leaping Creative embedded an arched tunnel to link various functional areas, so as to naturally form a smooth experience line with spatial exploration and purchasing activities.
