The textile selections used in this project were all sourced from Kravet, Inc. and include some of my favorites I have used. To juxtapose the historical elements of the home, I mixed mid-century modern and contemporary fabric patterns. The materiality included hide, leather, mohair, velvet and boucle to provide tactile depth. Rugs are abstract and have fluid movement to contrast with the light flooring. Finally, the wallpaper selections were used to pull the overall look together.

The layout of Masque was created based on the sociology of human nature. Various textures and lighting on the exterior of the building and in the display windows draw guests to the space. Upon entering the store there is a 10’ x 10’ open area for guests to decompress and transition into the environment of the store. 70% of individuals will walk a store counterclockwise. The goal is to have client experience a complimentary AI Skin Analysis with a skin specialist to personalize item recommendations. From the anlysis guests will continue to the primary products. Masque sells their own branded products, as well as several other well know brand name beauty care products. The consistency of branding colors and custom Masque scent faintly in the air will maintain the essence of the brand which is centered around wellness, sustainability & self care.
