Design Heaven In the middle east..
This is design heaven in my eyes!. The owner of this store must have great vision or confidence to allow designer Marcel Wanders to create this beautiful fashion store interior Villa Moda, Bahrain. To explain this interior to a client it would sound hugely busy and quite fussy, not a good back drop - this is why I say confidence, the owner must have just trusted that Marcel would create something amazing. And I think this is amazing - I love it!
The heavily patterned interior includes mannequins with mirrors in place of heads.
'For the interior design of Villa Moda, Marcel Wanders found inspiration in the traditional souk, creating a melting pot of cultures full of surprising. “The souk is the ultimate marketplace, a concentration of innovation and tradition, diversity and intimacy. Lose yourself in labyrinth passages and find yourself anew. We designed Villa Moda Bahrain as an international Babel of fashion, in order to share instead of divide. Meet the people of the own streets; shake hands and learn each other’s language.”' - text taken from http://www.arnewde.com
When I see interiors like this, more and more I'm inspired to take a design trip to the middle east for inspiration.
Love it, ciao!
