WINNER: RETAIL INTERIORS (GREATER THAN 200 SQUARE METRES)Fangsuo Bookstore in Chengdu by Chu Chih Kang Space DesignChu Chih Kang’s initial proposal was centered around “The Secret Scripture Library”. Scripture libraries have been found either in or under Buddhist temples for centuries and have an extended meaning of stored wisdom in Mandarin Chinese. The team found significant historical connections to the site, such as links to Daci Temple and one of the most famous monks in Buddhism - Xuan Zang of the Tang dynasty.JUDGES’ COMMENT‘Fangsuo is designed to be a bookstore, but they have actually called it a cathedral “carrying wisdom, culture and attitude”. That’s a high aim, and yet they’ve managed to pull it off. It has this exciting feel about it that makes you want to explore and discover all the different floors.’

JOINT WINNER: RETAIL INTERIORS (LESS THAN 200 SQUARE METRES)1888 Certified by TomMarkHenry1888 Certified is a unique butcher in Double Bay. Their product is sustainable, grass-fed and hormone free. The clients being fourth generation farmers are authentic and steadfast in their sustainable practices. Therefore the interior had to align with this ethos, and help to tell the story of the producers, and it was important to the clients that their customers engaged with their story.JUDGES’ COMMENT'It’s beautiful and elegant; I particularly like the choice of marble that looks like the marbling on meat, and yet it elevates it and makes it rather special. The display of all the knives is arranged so beautifully that you would be tempted to go in to see the "poetry of butchering" for yourself.’

JOINT WINNER: RETAIL INTERIORS (LESS THAN 200 SQUARE METRES) Importance of Walking Store by Praxis d’ArchitectureAn unexpected situation with the lease required the design for the space to be as economical as possible and fast to build. Furthermore, the shoe shelves were intended to be self-supporting, movable and ready for re-assembling. Effectively an independent piece of furniture, the installation could be moved easily and with minimal wastage. JUDGES’ COMMENT'It’s notoriously difficult to display shoes, but the storage system they have used does the job and makes the space dramatic and dynamic at the same time. Using a simple stepped element is a designed piece that can be easily manufactured and installed and has created a unified environment that is both flexible and incredibly exciting.'
