Further Research and Ideas

The idea below is an idea that will look differently from the two different exits. From the front entrance it will appear tall and long, with the design leading your eye up past the display cubes with the product on it, then up stairs that are up lit towards the double doors at the end. The main aesthetic of the space are the walls on either side of you as you walk in. The walls roll with different depths to it with test tubes all aligned so that shimmer within the light, with further research I need to develop and see how the natural light will play with the glass test tubes/cylinders. 

This is developed into more of a store then the idea of an exhibition store where I had the space empty apart form the walls of test tubes. They would be filled with a portion of the perfume and using the natural winds of wellington that stream through the store, it would linger the smell through the space and around the area.

Initial ideas

Using the initial stages of making perfume, by testing smells etc, making a wall out of these racks with multiple test tubes to create a feature wall.

This wall had a influence on the design idea of above. The wall with test tubes would have to have this type of wall as a base to slot the test tubes in, holding them in place. But the wall would have a breathing element to it.

An interesting material I found. Transparent concrete. Really gives off a lovely impression of light.

This back lit wall I think really makes the space feel clinical or like a science study - especially with the food. 

Something so simple like paper bags appears to make this wall that look beautiful. The use of repetition and light really makes something transform - something to look at.

Easy to view as stairs, the light appears to help the eye to distinguish the back from the front of each stair.

This image and the image below I just liked the quality of light within the space. The pitched roof at the rear of this house has sky lights that really being a decent amount of light into the space and helps to create and warmth.
