Designed by London-based architecture practice Sybarite, the new JOSEPH store in Singapore's Capitol Piazza mall is a stunning example of minimalist, forward-thinking retail design. The lofty space is characterized by chunky furniture paired with sleek clothing racks consisting of steel structural forms. The stylish shop is the brand's first in Asia and signals JOSEPH's current expansion under the direction of Creative Director Louise Trotter.
The JOSEPH Store is located within Capitol Piazza, the former City Hall in Singapore that along with the former legislative buildings, recently underwent a decade-long series of renovations that transformed the properties. Also included in the recently completed overhaul of the former government buildings is the Singapore National Art Gallery. Sybarite has been a collaborator with the JOSEPH brand for some time.
