# Psychedelic Retro Drugstores The Oaza Zdravlja Pharmacy is Inspired by the Healing Process By Meghan Young | Published 2009-11-19 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/oaza-zdravlja-pharmacy References: [contemporist](http://www.contemporist.com/2009/11/18/oaza-zdravlja-pharmacy-by-karim-rashid/?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed:) & [karimrashid](http://www.karimrashid.com/) Upon entering any drugstore, I’m usually too consumed with the ‘drug’ part rather than the ‘store’ aspect to ever notice how monotonous they are, that is, until I stumbled on Oaza Zdravlja Pharmacy. This futuristic-retro fusion is utterly mind-boggling. Never have I considered that the interior design of pharmacies needed revamping. Completed by none-other-than Karim Rashid, the Oaza Zdravlja Pharmacy is actually inspired by the human body rather than any particular time period. According to the designer, “This form is symbolic of the journey medication takes through the body’s cellular framework.” ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.6/10 - Popularity: 49% | Activity: 52% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/design) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Futuristic-retro Fusion:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Create innovative and visually appealing designs for retail spaces to enhance customer experience. - **Revamped Interior Design:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Redesign the interior layout of pharmacies to create a more inviting and aesthetic environment for customers. - **Inspired by Human Body:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Explore design inspirations from the human body to create unique and meaningful spaces in various industries. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Retail:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Implement innovative design concepts in retail stores to attract and engage customers. - **Pharmaceutical:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Enhance the design and layout of pharmaceutical stores to create a better overall experience for customers. - **Interior Design:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Apply design principles inspired by different concepts to create innovative and visually appealing spaces. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Therapy-Inspired Retail Concepts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/retail-therapy1.md) - [70s Italian Glamour-Themed Clinics](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/youth-lab.md) - [Marble-Patterned Interiors](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/psychedelic-interior.md) - [Monochromatic Cosmetic Clinics](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cosmetic-clinic.md) - [Residential-Reflective Tranquil Clinics](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/aloop-clinic.md) - [Island Concept Pop-Ups](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/10am-apotheke.md) - [Warm Medical Interior Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/oakv-clinic.md) - [Dynamic Organic Store Displays](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/la-manso.md) - [Tranquil Clinic Interior Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/palo-verde-aesthetic.md)
