HER is a unique retail space in Hong Kong that combines a cafe setting with fashion. The design of HER created by [Clap Studio](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/oven-club) was developed to express qualities such as femininity, purity and strength and the interior of the store was created to "transport the user to a new planet." Based on this concept, the design of the store takes cues from Mars and integrates the unusual landscapes, elements and colors of the Red Planet. As a space that [combines food and fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dior-cafe), HER invites visitors to enjoy a special drink from the brand.

The [ongoing explorations of Mars](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mars-collection) are inspiring creators across all industries, including designers who want to express what it might be like to walk on the far-off planet.
