Christopher Kane Store
Location
London
Year
2015
Architect
John Pawson
John Pawson has applied his signature minimal style to British fashion designer Christopher Kane’s first retail store. The new space is set within an Edwardian building in a Conservation Area on the West End’s Mount Street and features an off-white palette, mirrored surfaces and transparent display cases.
The shop is split over two floors, connected by a double height volume and an elongated steel rail set into a recessed section of wall and used to hang garments from.
A light fixture descends from the double-height ceiling onto a mirrored disk, edged with a circular rail for presenting a chosen few items.
