Interior Design Project Info

The design envisions a refined contemporary boutique fashion environment where the character of traditional architecture is reinterpreted through a calm and highly curated modern interior.

Rooted in the principles of warm minimalism, soft geometry and natural materiality, the concept creates an atmosphere of understated luxury — sophisticated yet approachable, timeless yet distinctly contemporary.

The existing architectural language is transformed into a modern interpretation of the urban shophouse. Strong vertical proportions, symmetrical composition and traditional window proportions establish a sense of permanence and architectural rhythm, while the clean white façade introduces a fresh contemporary identity.

Rather than relying on excessive ornamentation, the architecture allows proportion, materiality and refined detailing to define its character. Traditional references are therefore expressed through structure and rhythm, creating a subtle connection between the building’s heritage and its new identity.

Inside, the space embraces a warm contemporary minimalism, balancing a quiet architectural shell with the richness of timber flooring, textured surfaces, soft furnishings and carefully controlled lighting.

The material palette is composed of warm white, ivory, natural walnut, soft beige, brushed metal and restrained black accents. Together, these tones create a calm and gallery-like backdrop, allowing the clothing and curated collections to remain the primary visual focus.

Sculptural curves, arched elements and tactile surfaces soften the architectural geometry, introducing a sense of movement and intimacy. In contrast, symmetrical planning and disciplined merchandising bring structure and visual order, creating a refined balance between softness and precision.

Every element is intentionally considered — from the architectural proportions and material transitions to the display composition and lighting — allowing the fashion collection to become part of the spatial experience rather than simply occupying it.

The result is an intimate urban boutique where heritage meets contemporary expression, combining architectural character, refined materiality and a thoughtful retail experience.

CERITA COSTUME is not simply a place to shop, but a quiet setting where architecture, fashion and everyday stories unfold together.
