MINI MUNICH Pop-Up Store, La Roca Village

A specially scaled store for special little visitors

This project was a temporary shoe store of Munich’s footwear for kids in La Roca village to take shoe-selling to new heights using helium-filled balloons and a childlike design perspective.

Upon entering the pop-up store, the first thing one would notice was the scale of the design elements. Both the wares on display and the design of the temporary shoe boutique leave no doubt that the aim was to make Munich’s customer feel like at home, within a space inspired by the soccer universe. The playing environment makes children ask their parents to bring them to the space in order to have fun, this allows adults to buy without stress and for a longer time as the kids are enjoying.

The illustrations on the wall and the shoe samples hanging from helium-inflated balloons – a new way make the most of the unoccupied space to communicate the essence of the brand and generate emotions – show the designer’s attempt to combine temporary functionality with an interesting care for design.

The same applies for the recyclable pallet-based storage that comes directly from the factory and can be reused.

The design and assembly was done in a short period of time, with the idea in mind that the displays could be easily dismantled whenever necessary.
