Sanjay Puri Architects has redefined contemporary retail design with Stylera, a groundbreaking multi-brand store in Navi Mumbai that merges artistic expression with commercial functionality.
As part of this project, the architects strived to transform conventional shopping into an immersive experience through bold sculptural forms, vibrant color transitions, and interactive display elements that double as art installations. Custom-designed features like ombré-finish clothing racks, perforated metal dividers, and illuminated glass cashier pods immediately capture one's attention. By strategically utilizing these motifs, the architects have created distinct zones that maintain visual continuity while allowing each brand its own identity. Playful yet practical touches — such as serpentine sunglass displays and mirrored column enclosures — blur the boundaries between product presentation and spatial design. The multi-brand store's design even includes an influencer lounge.
