Project

Discreetly nestled within the storied confines of Nottingham’s historic Cobden Chambers, this reimagined retail space is anything but conventional. Conceived as a footwear boutique for the style-savvy modern woman, it introduces a bold visual language that stands in vibrant counterpoint to its heritage setting.

Sculptural forms, expressive materials, and curated vignettes define the interiors, where each detail has been meticulously considered. Rather than merely honoring the building’s past, the design engages in a compelling dialogue with it, embracing history while confidently projecting a contemporary attitude. The result is a space that transcends retail, becoming a destination in its own right: immersive, memorable, and unapologetically modern.


This is not merely a retail environment. It is a destination. Every detail has been thoughtfully curated to craft an immersive experience, where a matcha bar sits seamlessly alongside sculptural displays, tactile materials, and vibrant, unexpected bursts of color and form. More than a store, the space serves as a statement: youthful, modern, and intentionally unforgettable.
