New Project - Organic Skincare Storefront
A new retail shop for an organic skincare range marks a significant new chapter for its business owner.
Transitioning from an online and stockist-only presence to a dedicated retail space allows the brand to connect with its community in a whole new way. This space is not just a store but a platform for engagement, offering visitors a chance to explore the product range in person, participate in workshops, and experience the brand’s hands-on approach to skincare.
Assembly Interiors has been engaged to create the design direction for the storefront, an exciting opportunity to contribute to the community’s retail offering and shopping experience.
The design concept is rooted in creating a tranquil sanctuary that reflects the brand’s commitment to natural, high-quality products.
Soft, soothing textures and natural materials define the space, enhancing the sense of light and scale within the building. Visitors are greeted by rich rendered walls, bespoke joinery, and centralised curved tables—perfect for showcasing seasonal campaigns or specialty items.
Natural woods, linens, handcrafted lighting, and ivory tiles harmonise with aged brass hardware, creating a polished yet grounded atmosphere where the products take centre stage.
Flexibility was a key consideration in the design.
Linear cabinetry and floating shelves guide visitors through the store to a spacious service point, ensuring a seamless shopping experience.
The layout is adaptable to support a variety of activities, from retail and production to events and workshops.
Drapery inspired by Japanese Noren subtly defines spaces, signalling privacy or openness while maintaining the store’s inviting flow.
The Japandi-inspired aesthetic—a fusion of Japanese minimalism and Scandinavian functionality—anchors the design. This style brings a modern reimagining of an apothecary aesthetic, blending earthy materials with elements that evoke the tranquillity of global wellness traditions. Accents of clay, richly veined marble, soft blush hues, and aged brass are woven throughout, adding depth and sophistication. The tactile finishes and serene atmosphere transform the store into more than a retail destination; it’s an elevated experience.
For the business owner, this space represents increased revenue opportunities, brand awareness, and a deeper connection to the community. It’s a place where customers can immerse themselves in the brand’s ethos, explore a thoughtfully curated product range, and build lasting loyalty. With its contemporary design and community-focused functionality, our design sets the stage for the brand’s growth and long-term success.
