Wine Gallery is organized as an inhabited wine archive: part retail store, part cellar and part tasting bar. Instead of hiding storage behind the scenes, SpaceLAB turns the collection itself into the architecture. Wine crates, bottle racks and full-size oak barrels are organized within a dark metal grid that wraps the room and gives the 300 sq.m. interior a strong sense of depth and repetition.
The palette is restrained. Warm timber and wine boxes sit against dark steel and a black ceiling, while linear shelf lighting and luminous geometric ceiling frames guide attention through the dense display. A more intimate tasting area shifts the atmosphere with timber-clad walls, glass partitions, stretched fabric canopies, sculptural lighting and barrel tables, allowing retail and hospitality to coexist within one project.
A continuous grid of dark metal shelving holds bottle cases at multiple scales, punctuated by full-size oak barrels. The repeated modules create a wall of inventory that reads simultaneously as storage, display and interior elevation.
Wooden cases become more than packaging: stacked as plinths, fitted into shelving and used as display furniture, they connect the language of wine storage with the customer experience. The oak barrels add a larger vertical rhythm and reinforce the cellar character of the room.
The entrance is visually restrained from outside: black framing, full-height glazing and landscape create a restrained threshold, while the illuminated timber boxes and wine displays remain visible beyond the glass. The contrast between the dark exterior and warm interior makes the retail space read as a glowing archive at night.
Timber wall panels and black framed glazing define an intimate zone beside the main gallery. Stretched fabric canopies soften the tall volume above barrel tables and red leather chairs, while a sculptural chandelier introduces a more decorative moment within the otherwise utilitarian material language.
