As a curated library of vast automotive treasures, it is designed with the intent of strengthening the thread that cultivates the avid spirit for driving. Fuelled with endless motion and the purest exhilaration, this place introduces an aura of stillness. capturing moments of excitement within a split second and honouring it in all its glory.
Softening the usual preconception of a garage entrance.
Home to priceless cars and memorabilia, we aim to celebrate its air of history and unfold the fruitful narrative within. This notion has formed the backbone of our design approach and has allowed us to communicate the beauty of automotive design into the details of the space. Inspired by the mechanical nature of cars, we have opted to engineer the space with mobility design in mind. Each component and part that has been fittingly integrated within, can be easily assembled and disassembled to the user’s whim. Deriving an unparalleled level of modularity, while maintaining an exquisite fit and finish.
Room for keys and to contemplate your car rolling out the lift.
Our vision was to package this without losing the level of immersion we were seeking for. So we ventured out and experimented with materiality to craft a hall of infinite reflections, utilising polished stainless steel panels to create a visual journey that seamlessly plays with light and forms. Exemplary of our attention to detail, we proceeded to recognise what is fundamental to the essence of a car.
Adjustable polished stainless steel panels allow for infinite viewing possibilities.
A place for conversations and contemplation.
The Library lantern integrates into a flexible lighting system that can be portable or wall mounted.
Foldable armrests honour mobility, prove practicality and define comfort.
Single bracket armchairs reincarnate lightweight efficiency, while custom stools echo the form of spark plugs, the furniture embodies nostalgic accents that stir the soul, enhancing the space's unique character.
Mechanics and structure.
