Futuremade Studio Store

Futuremade Studio is a leading lifestyle clothing brand from Malaysia. With the brand’s aspiration of seeking adventures outdoors and affection towards utilitarianism, we imagined the retail space as a physical extension of Futuremade’s brand as we crafted the space that exudes warmth and tranquility. Drawing inspiration from Japanese craftmanship, we designed a set of functional furniture that took cues from Japanese traditional wooden house entrance where a raised footplate sits atop a bed of foundation stones allowing the structure to withstand the test of time. A long bespoke clothing display without a vertical support structure to achieve a minimal-yet-practical aesthetic that echoes well with the brand’s ethos. Adding a sense of familiarity to the space, the window display was populated by the owner’s personal collections and a handful of curated objects.
