Shu 2007

Shu 2007 - The site for a new shoe shop in Valletta presented a limited volume with a considerable challenge; the client’s brief demanded a display of 75 pairs of shoes and to store another 600. A vertical design approach was adopted where space was conceived purely as access and consequently fragmented into one giant staircase combining display, seating, storage and services into one element. We imagined clients climbing stairs, picking their favourite shoe, sitting next to it and trying it on.
