Warm, feminine tones provide a perfectly soft backdrop for the brand’s Menswear and Womenswear collections, while spot lighting brings the garments to life.
Curved lounges add softness, while a selection of plinths and sculptures give strength and substance to the store. Parr created the plinths installation himself, taking inspiration from Brancusi sculptures.

A plethora of different materials have been incorporated into the design, from sandy concrete resin on the floor and walls to marble shelving, offering a variety of textures to the touch.
While Off-White has independent stores scattered around major cities globally, it is also a favourite of high end department stores including Barneys, Selfridges, Harrods and Le Bon Marché.

The label, which was established in 2013, prides itself on “defining the grey area between black and white as a color”.
All the way from its design studio based in Milan, Off White’s seasonal collections focus on creating garments that have an “identity by design”.
