A Black-and-White store
Black and White Antique Marble in a London store

Once again marble for the strongly identifiable aesthetics of a global sports lifestyle brand that combines high functional performance with the high formal quality of its products. In fact, the stone material is the protagonist in a large shop that offers a remarkable range of articles from glasses to clothing, from shoes to bags and watches, accompanied by a series of in-store services for customer advice and personalisation of purchases.
It is a complex contemporary retail space where natural materials recall the atmospheres of outdoor sports and resolve all the design themes of interior design, from surfaces to wall display elements and fixed furnishings. The floor is in herringbone parquet, the wall coverings are in Bianco and Nero Antico marble laid in 5mm thick lightened panels on 20mm metal honeycomb support.

The veined texture of the marble is powerfully emphasised in the wide vertical lay-out of the double-height entrance area; the attention to detail is entirely handcrafted and reaches its fullest expression in the wall integration of large cylindrical lamps or in the construction of the sales desks, with glass cases and marble cladding.
