Sulwhasoo Singapore Flagship Store’s design identity

  • As a representative flagship store in the ASEAN region, Sulwhasoo Boutique in Capitol Singapore is designed to carry Sulwhasoo’s unique brand color while accentuating the characteristics of the Capitol Building, Singapore’s landmark.
  • Most notable in Sulwhasoo Boutique’s design are the curved lines that reflect a strong appreciation for Singapore’s traditional architectural form. In addition, the flagship store has adopted the black and white colors – the same color code as in other Sulwhasoo stores – but features brass as a point color. The color of brass is incorporated in the store due to its connection to the gardenia color in Sulwhasoo’s brand identity.
  • The simplest design was selected for store fixtures in order to bring prominence to Sulwhasoo products that feature the unique flowing lines of Asia. The use of patterned marble adds a soft, warm and feminine touch.
  • The inside of the store is divided into two primary sections: the ‘Beauty Program Service Zone’ at the center and the ‘Product Zone’ in the surrounding area. In particular, the ‘Beauty Program Service Zone’ stands out with the contrast of designs and colors to highlight the professional beauty programs that Sulwhasoo Boutique offers. The video display wall makes customers feel closer to Sulwhasoo.
  • In addition, the ‘Product Zone’ is placed around the edges of the store, where ceilings are elevated. The ‘Product Zone’ is an open space without walls, maximizing the contact between Sulwhasoo products and customers across aisles of the Capitol Building and glass windows.
