ARCHITECTURE CONCEPT AND INTERIOR DESIGN
Golden Monstera: Raw Sculptural Boutique
Designed as a 50 sqm monolithic sanctuary, this boutique combines a retail gallery with a small integrated jewelry workshop. The project balances raw strength with sculptural delicacy, allowing the pieces to remain the focus. The façade is conceived as a solid volume softened by subtle curves that break its rigidity and invite people in. A large recessed opening defines the threshold, while the original tree on site is preserved, grounding the project within its context. Inside, striated white-beige concrete wraps the space, contrasted by a deep wall in the brand’s signature color, acting as both backdrop and identity. Sculptural plinths and organic bases organize the layout, turning each display into an intentional moment. The workshop is discreetly integrated, supporting the making process without competing with the retail experience. The result is an intimate, gallery-like environment that feels both grounded and refined where raw materiality meets softness, and where the architecture quietly elevates the presence of each object.
