Imagination at Its Finest

The bright lights and big names of the high end fashion industry set the standards high for boutique stores. Supernova Studio accepted the challenge when designing Kokoo Boutique. Boutiques need a grand feature to grab their shopper's attention. People like to experience something unique and out of the ordinary to enhance their shopping experience. A visual presence is important for any retail space, however, it is imperative for a boutique.

Kokoo Boutique was featured on the Interior Design Magazine website. "What came first, the chicken or the egg?" Is a question that has been asked for centuries. Supernova felt that they came simultaneously, henceforth creating a new concept.

The giant rooster adds to the character of Kokoo Boutique. Supernova did not want to use the traditional fixtures found in retail stores. The use of colors, textures, and materials create a visual identity for the boutique. Designing a boutique of the stature allows for the products sold to follow suite.


Why use hooks to hang jewelry when you can use umbrella handles?

Having a fresh, avant garde space creates a visual identity for a boutique that anyone would want to shop in.
