Departamento store by 22RE

Los Angeles-based studio 22RE has combined metal grids, black and mirrored surfaces, and bold splashes of colour inside this men's multi-brand boutique in the city's Arts District.
Using the building's industrial bones to inform design decisions, 22RE took styling sensibilities of 20th-century modernists like Rudolph Schindler and Richard Neutra.
The store's entrance is concealed inside a Concierge Coffee, leading to a mirrored portal that opens onto the shop floor.
While the layout follows a typical grid, the designers have inserted a variety of partitions, volumes and displays that "disrupt" the flow and encourage shoppers to explore.
A pair of curved metal-clad walls that evoke a Richard Serra sculpture form a narrow corridor from one area to another, while also displaying garments on their concave sides.
Blackened wood panels form an enclosed space, inside which bright white walls and repurposed wooden framing contrast dramatically with the rest of the store interior.
