HOCOLATE MAKING -it's
both a science and an art. So
it only makes sense that the
debut boutique for a young,
Kuwait-based chocolatier
would result in a beautiful blend of the
two. Located in Kuwait City's Arjan
Square, the bite-size shop for Bean to
Bar mixes veined silver travertine floors
and refrigerated countertops with an algorithmically generated steel chandelier
and a digitally fabricated, cellular waffle
vault that wraps around the space. The
result is an illusion of expansion and
shelving that doubles as an analogue display screen for messaging and patterns.
"In an industry where packaging also
plays an essential role, the design had to
factor in the flexibility toward change in
branding, graphics and seasonal promotions," says Gijo Paul George, one of
the co-founders of Studio Toggle, the
Kuwait City-based firm behind the
design. "This resulted in a design that
facilitates a dynamic retail experience which adapts to any occasion or
event based on the nature of the graphics and packaging on display."
While the parametrically generated
cellular structure helps to bring an airy
feel to the narrow space, an overall refined industrial aesthetic speaks to the
chocolatier's bean-to-bar approach.
"The honest expression of the construction materials-laser-cut steel and
stone-adds to the brand ideals of transparency and fair trade," George says.
Our take: it looks good enough to eat.
