The project language takes reference from the process of lapping and polishing gems, who gives shine and conforms angular faces so peculiar to jewelry. Therefore, the faceted panel is the key piece of the store, made by triangular polygons in MDF, all different from each other and finished in pink matte lacquer. It continues to the back of the store and hides two dressing rooms behind the mirrors.

The clothing exhibition is done by four tubular stainless steel supports. Accessories are exposed on the bench just below the tubes, and at the sideboard and in the panel niche.

The layout adopted allows the non-linear flow of customers, which can freely explore the space of the store, and on events days enables the rapid reconfiguration of the environment.
