刀具店购物中心 Paseo Quilín

Firm： SZAA (Sarmiento Zamora Associated Architects)

Type： Commercial › Retail Shopping Mall

YEAR： 2013

In collaboration with Francisco Briceño (FBJ Architects). Knife Store Mall Paseo Quilín project was born as a request for refurbishing an existing store. We needed to maximize the size of the given space so we made all facades as a showcase. The main facade is transparent and made of glass, letting the knifes and swords to be the filter between the interior and exterior. On the back side, we made a showcase formed by twelve black mobile magnetics squares that can turn on a central axis. This allows displaying the knifes to the interior and exteriors.
