Nukak is a brand that recycles discarded banners, kite surf sails, and tire inner tubes to create bags and accessories. Naturally, products are made with various patterns and graphics, and a one-of-a-kind design product is created.

As the product lines for each material were very diverse, so were the sizes, so the form of display was the starting point for design. Aluminum profiles are a material widely used in industrial settings and come in various shapes and sizes to suit the intended use. Using this, we configured furniture to match the product display method and store operation behavior. The wood was appropriately combined to bring the mechanical feel of the profile closer to furniture. The walls were also constructed with height-adjustable profiles so that they could respond to the display of product groups.

One of Nukak's unique features is that you can make accessories using materials you choose yourself in the store. Since the custom zone is different from other stores, cotton lighting was used to give strength to the space. Furnishings with a choice of materials were also designed to be functional, taking advantage of these characteristics. The class zone, which is operated periodically, has a profile that is used for tables and tool storage.
The colors produced by the product are diverse and colorful, so the floor, walls, and ceiling were used as is on-site conditions without any additional finishing so that the space could serve as a background.
