The new Pilar's Story Toyshop is absolutely perfect for children. Filled with fantasy and imagination, it is a [creative haven for kids](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/superpower-studios-initiative) of all ages.

Designed by Elia Felices, the Pilar's Story Toyshop is located in Barcelona, Spain. I can see children wanting to visit the store for its [magical appeal](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/magical-childrens-book) rather than the merchandise contained within. With its mystical rainbows, out-of-proportion objects and [plethora of color](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/play-pavilion-1), the store's interior is definitely captivating.
