Design Brief

Retail Design Studio with a focus on Working Drawing Training.

Aim: Design a retail space that is both functional and aesthetic, based on a site in Ahmedabad, India.

Site: Sun One, Ahmedabad

Space: Retail Store + Cafe

Area: 80'00'' x 35'88''

"Bitter Sweet" operates as both a vibrant cafe and an art retail space, offering a wide range of art and craft supplies, and stationery, and also hosting art events.

The site is a corner shop located at a crossroads. It is divided into five bays, which include a mixture of retail and dining areas. The first bay has shelves to display the products, while the other four have seating in the middle and display shelves on the edges. The display shelves act as a partition between the bays. 

The space is a place to buy art supplies and a community hub for artists. Second-hand art supplies and sample products are available for customers to try and use without the pressure to purchase.
Moreover, it is a platform for artists to showcase and sell their artwork, which will be displayed in the shop. The design program is inclusive, catering to every age group and skill level.
