The 'Imren Sweet Shop' in Antalya, Turkey was designed to offer a contemporary interpretation of the classic candy store.
Small sweet shops have existed around the world for a long time and tend to have classic, vibrant aesthetics that are more traditional than they are contemporary. Designed by 'Kst Architecture & Interiors,' this particular Turkish candy store opts for a modern aesthetic. The store features candy in gold-lidded jars and glass storage units, while the space itself is black and white, minimal and brightly lit. The resulting aesthetic is one that favors simplicity over extravagant designs – but with the same appeal.
This candy store works to appeal to people of all ages and reinterpret how sweet shops should be designed.
