Cozy Industrial Store Designs

Henry Wilson Studio Turns an Old Bakery into a Aesop Store

— April 25, 2014 — Art & Design
Turning an old bakery into a stunning Aesop store for the skin brand, Australia-based firm Henry Wilson Studio did an amazing job at keeping authentic touches where they needed to be.

Balancing a feel of contemporary and industrial rustic, the Aesop store design is full of interesting little details like statement original sandstone walls, industrial metal shelving units, copper pipes and a row of locally-sourced sandstone sinks. Aesop stores are known to be designed by top-notch designers all over the world, and this branch in Sydney certainly does not disappoint.

"The stone walls are typical for buildings of the area, and of that era," says Wilson. "Sydney sandstone is unique in its yellow colour and grey veins. It's soft and easy to work and the evidence of the primitive tools and unskilled labour can be seen in all the original blockwork."

1. Authentic Industrial Store Designs - There is an opportunity for businesses to create an authentic industrial store design that balances contemporary elements with original features, such as sandstone walls and metal shelving units.

3. Top-notch Designer Store Branches - There is a trend for top-notch designers to create stunning store designs, such as this Aesop branch in Sydney, which can set a high standard for businesses to follow.
Industry Implications
1. Retail Industry - Retail businesses can incorporate authentic industrial design elements and locally-sourced materials to create a unique shopping experience for customers.
2. Interior Design Industry - Interior designers can use this trend of authentic and industrial design to create unique and functional spaces for businesses, such as Aesop stores.
3. Construction Industry - Construction companies can specialize in restoring and repurposing old buildings, such as an old bakery, for businesses to use as stunning store locations with original features.
