The seaside town is referenced in the space, celebrating the natural beauty and architecture with a Spanish influence. The golf apparel store is defined by its terracotta tiling which are laid in a variety of patterns throughout the fitting room walls and the floors. The firm also placed the service counter right in the middle. The studio explains the project, "Drawing inspiration from the cypress and Douglas fir trees of the region, the design embraces the essence of Carmel's landscapes while reflecting the spirit of the great outdoors. The store's thoughtfully refined layout integrates two distinct storefronts into a seamless and cohesive retail experience, intentionally designed to elevate functionality and maintain aesthetic cohesion."
