As we put our 3D design side by side with the actual photo in the carousel… it brings the vision to life, crafting an industrial bookstore that exudes warmth and charm. The cozy ambiance invites you to explore every title of every shelf from the moment you step inside.
This is another of our project with one of the biggest local publisher, Kumpulan Media Karangkraf. The task is to setup new branch of Book2u by Karangkraf in the north transportation hub named Penang Sentral. The blend of industrial, woody materials and vibrant yellow pendant lamp makes the space more welcoming and cozy. The custom island counter is also very functional and presentable in showcasing the treats and knick knacks in front of the counter.
Not like conventional bookstores where floors are made of tiles and ceiling are covered. Book2U opted for a more industrial theme, the floors are cement rendered and the ceiling are exposed with dangling ceiling blocks and pendant lights. This gives us the opportunity to be more creative and explore new ways of showcasing books and stationeries. The external wall with signage was also made from exposed bricks and we painted it white to enhance the logo.
