The rustic wooden installations of the former sales room from the 60s/70s were removed and the space was restored to its shell. As one of the companies sustainablility criterias, Studio InteriorPark. went for the concept under the motto: Reduce. Reuse. Recycle.

Here the customer is taking a time journey back to the 1960s. The wood paneling on the walls and the ceilings have been conserved and emphasized with champagne-gold joints.
“With its successful mix of nostalgia and new staging, the gallery sets new standards in Stuttgart, where the original and the original are not always valued to this extent.”
