The Presentedby store is conceived as an interactive exhibition space where digital dimension informs the physical
and vice versa. Even before going in, the customer is captured by a double funnel- shaped entrance covered with screens that uses
outstanding projections images starting right away the fully immersive experience. Presentedby features interactive
and dynamic projections on the floor, being sensible to foot traffic and making the space more playful. The 3D printed lattice walls, with their sinuous shapes, are inspired by the technologies and 3D parameters used by all fashion brands to produce sneakers nowadays. This lattice uses an advanced polymer integrating wearepure, a
100% natural mineral compound, with the property to mineraliz e primary greenhouse gases (CO2 and NOx) and reduce volatile organic compounds (VOCs). The use of this material permits the new space to reduce the contaminated air behaving like a small forest. The store absorbs 38kg’s of CO2 per year. At the center of the space the ultimate experience capsule performs a spectacular holographic and projections show giving the room an idea of infinite space.
