Plastic Box
The project is an example of minimalist brutalism. The space redefines the shopping experience through bold aesthetics and innovative functionality. Conceived as a concrete shell with straight lines and geometric volumes, it conveys a sense of strength and permanence. The most distinctive element is the ceiling, composed of more than a thousand recycled plastic crates arranged in a modular, meticulously aligned manner.
