N.C Studio is not only a furniture store but also a resource-sharing platform for interior designers. The design team ensures the store lacks an overly commercial feel, creating a cozy space where designers can comfortably interact and exchange ideas.



The core of this design is to preserve the unique characteristics of each piece of furniture. Using minimalistic design, the furniture becomes the focal point of the space, maintaining its style regardless of where it is placed. The warm and homely atmosphere allows customers to feel how the furniture would look in their homes, and it provides a welcoming vibe as a lounge for interior designers.



N.C Studio features a multi-branded European item selection, including paints and flooring. To showcase the refinement of premium original brands, the design avoids extensive decoration. Instead, the furniture itself defines the visual experience, allowing old and new styles to blend seamlessly.



The space and layout are highly flexible and dynamic, allowing for free-flowing tours. Avoiding using clear sections, but instead using items themselves to define the areas, creates a relaxed experience. With a diverse range of furniture, the color scheme is kept subtle, allowing the items to showcase their unique features and natural colors.



To complement the European brand's rustic and historical feel, the rough texture of the walls is preserved to give a sense of time-worn charm, creating a beautiful contrast with the furniture. By embracing the building's imperfections and showcasing its original state, the space's character is enhanced.



Beyond aesthetics, sustainability is a core principle of this design: minimalistic decorations maintain the raw appearance of the structure, reducing material use. All materials, including wood, paint, and panels, are certified green by the government, ensuring a healthy environment for occupants with minimal environmental impact.
