Fünf
Höfe Munchen
Camper Meeting-point
Shop
Project concept and references
I was thinking that the location of the Camper shop was very unusual and
special, an open triangle space on the edge of the Fünf Höfe
building from Herzog and de Meuron.
Once when I was starting to work on the project, I was investigating on
the historical surroundings and the context, also the commercial context
(the other brands in the centre).
The idea was to make a special Camper shop, not a generic one like the
other brands do; So I was considering a project done specifically for
the Fünf Höfe Munchen Camper Shop.
The idea is to configure a meeting-point Camper shop, the position of
the shop makes it ideal, it is the first element you find coming from
Ludwigstr. when going to the center and the idea is that graphically it
becomes an icon for meeting people in the center of München, alternative
to the Frauenplatz.
The "Camper obstruction marking pattern” is an easy visual identification
system and makes a reference to the Bavarian flag (Duchy of Babaria 1340),
and it is done with the dark-earth camper red colour transparent vynil.
The pattern acts also like an attraction, form very far away you see the
pattern and makes you go there, there is an space in between where you
can not identify, and once you are close you see perfectly the interior
of the shop, as the squares are big enough. The effect is a kind of "curiosity
generator”.
The lamps are from Ingo Maurer.
