Visitors are welcomed in a curvilinear room with dark floors and walls, but which does not acquire a sober tone due to the use of a ceiling covered in mirrors. The spaces are divided by a series of transparent walls, also curved, which allow a better appreciation of each of the assemblies.

The brand set out to create spacious rooms that can accommodate several people, using various types of benches and long sofas. The dark brown wooden floor is broken up by the use of a grayish shag rug, which makes the space cozy and inviting.

The colors of the furniture upholstery are the way in which the brand brings elegance and softness to the space. The overlapping shades of brown, off-white and moss green bring the space to life without losing harmony.

The sofas were covered with a discreet printed pattern, varying between shades of grey, white and black, without conflicting with other tones or other prints. For the smaller seats, they opted for a more striking print, such as zebra animal print, adding personality to the space.

The circular geometric shape was used in several situations in the exhibition, highlighted by the shape of the carpet and the backrests of the armchairs. The coffee table and some side tables were also rounded, in order to make the space more communal and synergistic.

Not only did the furniture have rounded edges, but the hall was also designed to become sinuous. Transit from one space to another is done in curves, giving a sense of continuity and integration to the entire exhibition.

The two spiral staircases, one at each end of the space, enrich the environment as a stunning architectural element, which also follow the round pattern of the exhibition.

The circular sofas, however, are the big differentiator of the exhibition. In an elongated size that offers more seating for large groups of people, the circular shape stands out in any common room, taking the appearance and design of the space beyond the obvious.

In addition to being comfortable and spacious, the sofas also help to shape the room, creating a movement that delimits the living area. The side table also follows the same curve as the sofa, thus establishing a dynamic 'U' configuration.
