|
|
Entrusted by the UK’s Department for Business and Trade, 5 Star Plus Retail Design designed and executed the UK Pavilion at Beauty Showcase in Hangzhou 2024. The design concept drew heavily from a blend of traditional British apothecary aesthetics and modern design principles, creating a space that was both rooted in heritage and forward-looking. The initial mood board set the stage by emphasizing themes such as nature, cleanliness, and high-quality craftsmanship, all of which are integral to the identity of the British brands being showcased. The design team drew inspiration from classic British apothecaries, characterized by wooden cabinetry details, full-height rows of drawers, and an overall atmosphere of timeless expertise.
