King Mo

King Mo is a jewelry store that gathers several jewelry brands within one interior. The design is based on the idea of an accumulation of gems. The ceiling is formed by white steel rods arranged along mathematical curves, creating a three-dimensional pattern that appears to change with the viewing angle. Each rod has a diameter of 80 millimeters and holds lighting and sprinkler systems inside. The rods were numbered and installed in order, as their lengths vary. The store covers 1200 square meters, of which about 500 square meters are common areas.

Clay Moulded is the interior design of a musical theatre in Klaipeda, Lithuania. Clay covers the walls and ceilings, and over 30 tonnes of the material were applied by hand.
