POP UP! The Lake & Stars Pop-up shop by SOFTlab & Focus Lighting, New York

22 February 2012 by retail design blog No comments »

The SOFTlab-designed pop-up shop for The Lake & Stars plays with the concept of viewing cones to provide visitors with two entirely different shopping experiences. Focus Lighting uses these cones both as a focal point and opportunity to provide light. A central wall composed of 29 irregularly shaped cones seems to hover over the middle of the shop, dividing it into two separate spaces.
