Flair Studio Ltd

23 Addison Park Mansions , Richmond Way , London , London , W14 0EA , United Kingdom

Flair Studio Collaborated with Milanese-based Paloma Architects in the design and delivery of the flagship store for Velasca, an Independent brand which designs and manufactures hand-made Italian men shoes, in Chiltern Street a few meters away from the Chiltern Fire House in the upscale Marylebone area in London. While preserving the heritage features of the building, such as the two columns flanking the entrance and the herringbone floor, the design introduced a mix of vintage and bespoke furniture units with the aim to create a workshop-like atmosphere, the Bowling Club being a playful theme which reminds of the 1960s.
