Barde vanVoltt has conceptualised the new store for Calico Club in Nistelrode, Netherlands.

"Calico Club's new zen-inspired store creates calm in an unpredictable world," said Barde vanVoltt.

The design philosophy is founded in contrast where Dutch heritage and Japanese tradition collide to form an unexpected expression.

The floor plan is shaped like a Japanese zen garden and its traditional elements of rock, water and plants have been interpreted in more modern and abstract ways.

"It showcases the best brands in a space unlike any other, in a village you would not think of immediately and is supported with a screen-free policy," added Barde vanVoltt. "An original retail experience that is well worth the journey."

This project has been longlisted in the retail interior (large) category of Dezeen Awards 2023.
