Glassons, Bondi Junction
Sydney, NSW
Retail | 273sqm

Glassons Bondi Junction will expand by 100 sqm. Recognising and responding to both the context and existing customer of this site, we wanted to elevate the shopping experience through considered planning and sophisticated finishes.

We are increasing the space around the product displays to create a more comfortable shopping experience. Positioning the counter and services away from the displays, channels the customer focus on the clothing. This is enhanced by the large format, digital screens throughout the store, featuring the brand’s compelling fashion content, telling a product and brand story. Giving space to the imagery resembles a gallery-like interior. The screens easily shift the store environment from a new product drop to a seasonal change.

Raw concrete, Pietra Mazano walls and custom terrazzo tiles contrast with mirror and stainless steel merchandise displays. The raw, minimal palette is uplifted through the use of Vintage Deux velvet curtains and warm lighting on the feminine, often bright, fast fashion clothing. Stainless blades float in front of the fitting rooms, leading the customer to the point of sale counter, subtly signalling a change in function within the space.
