First Flagship store for investment in Gold and Bitcoin in Madrid, Spain. Narrative: Gold Rush, Gold: Strong, pure, graceful, solid, precious metal, massive, real, bright, true, shining, powerful, minted, lordly, glittering, dazzling, … all that in this piece of precious metal. Concept: Finding inspiration and esthetics in raw gold form, as its primal form. All is nonpermanent, while gold was always mesmerizing people for its everlasting shine and never rusting color. The 56 square meter venue is located in the Golden mile of Madrid , Calle Velazquez surrounded by 19-20th century classic buildings. The space is divided in 2 floors. In the ground floor find the waiting area with sofas with a very elegant look evoking a Manhattan bank in the 1920’s. When we go down, we find the vault in the basement where are we are attended privately in a mystery room, very dark that reminds us a Mission Impossible film. The challenge of the Design was to make a Modern minimal design but not losing that Elegancy touch that have the Art Deco banks. Concrete walls frame a minimal space, a big Rock of ruff Gold is breaking the grey concrete. Linear lighting and same lineal design in the terrazzo floor inlay. A big wall reminds us the security boxes of Classic bank. We find a spiral star case painted in Royal blue going down to a very dark room, black metal and black mirrors frame the antic Vault. This space was created to make the illusion of been inside a vault What we used: Concrete walls, gold rock and tables and accent of Royal blue sofas and terrazzo floor with gold inlays. Black perforated metal, black mirror walls, glossy black floor to focus all the attention in the antic vault exterior. Very low dimmed lighting making a dramatic lighting effect.
