Karis is located in a shopping center in Higashi Hiroshima city, Japan. Using a multitude of cardboard tubes the Suppose Design team created several complex, randomly layered arches. The aim is for the organic nature of the [interior design](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/frama-3) to create a fresh relationship between customers and the products. The Karis by Suppose Design is a truly unique space. **Implications** - If you're look for a contemporary or unusual place to do your shopping, then this retail space is perfect for you.
