kengo kuma는 밀라노에서 캠퍼 가게를 오픈한 후 바르셀로나에 2번째 매장을 개조하였다. 둥근 천장에 세라믹판을 이용한 혁신적인 카탈로니아 건축법을 도입한 이 곳은 특히 지하실의 개념을 혁신적으로 변화시켰다. 가구의 기본 단위로 세라믹 금고를 들이고, 선반에서 벤치에 이르기까지 신발을 놓는 카운터 역할을 하게 함으로써 카탈로니아 문화를 반영하는 따뜻하고 친절한 분위기를 자이내도록 했다.
after designing camper’s store in milan, kengo kuma has completed the renovation of a second retail space for the spanish shoe company, this time in barcelona. facing the plaza catalonia, camper paseo de gracia incorporates a revolutionary catalan method of construction which uses vaulted ceramic plates as the form-work of floor slabs.
kuma has chosen the ground-breaking concept of the vault, which was also a great point of reference for catalan architect antoni gaudi throughout his works, as the main visual feature of the barcelona camper store. the ceramic vault has been used here as the basic unit of the furniture, from shelves, to benches, and counters for the shoes, resulting in a warm and friendly atmosphere which reflects the culture of catalonia.
