spirit and atmosphere
BLUE GLUE watches the changing sea, wide curves of waves, horizons and skies . . .colors like to play
with light, they are transparent, thick like recycled glass, warm like white sands and shine like pure
crystals, spreading a breeze of eternity.
All these perceptions have been captured and dissolved into a unique decoration design and exclusive
materials created for BLUE GLUE. Our Concept Stores vehicles this innovative feeling based on pure
water, light, and eternity with frosted glass and mirror splinters, crystal Plexiglas, and graphics of water
and light reflecting blurred sprays and deep waters. |

flooring
Option #1
Aqua colored cement tiles, finely polished, with incrustation of leaves creating a flower pattern.
Installed like floor ceramics, with thin cement joints in the same color as the tiles. The polished ef-fect should be maintained periodically.
If ciré, apply ciré finishing (highly glazed finish, usually by the application of wax), and frothy.
If laminated, apply a new layer when fading. |
| |
 |
|
| |
• Option #2
White washed pale wood.
Wide timber planks, placed in the width of the shop. |
| |
 |
| |
• Option #3
Some massive thick & heavy glass sheets lined with a graphic design sticker inside.
Sticker motif embodies water & light and some large white frangipani flowers, slightly blurred.
Technically, the glass panels are sitting upon some rubber sheets on a flat floor.
An exclusive option, for exclusive locations! |
| |
walls
volumes and 3D effects on panel shapes
• Curves:
Volumes, shapes and lines follow curved shapes.
If the curves are multiple, they will be long curved lines
If it is a single line, it can be S shaped.
A curved side wall may include a fitting room or a display inserted inside a space only visible through a slit inside the curved panel.
• Floating
Wall panels appear like "floating" and emit indirect light from their top and bottom.
• Option
non conventional space structure can also be achieved by defining oblique lines while finally recov-ering the internal initial space. |
|
special volumes
• Niche are hollowed out in the gypsum panels, to include mannequins, or create a surprise !
• Discover a hidden jungle or a stylish flower bouquet behind a glass window, as in a magic work of Art!
• Art elements can be added if the space allows it, to enhance 3D effect, to increase perspective and to add a touch of Art. These elements can be shaped as a cascade flow, as a twisted spiral.
• They will break the symmetry and regularity of the actual space. |
| |
 |
|
Floating wall panel and mannequin niches |
|
|
| |
colors and material
• Walls are painted with shades of BLUE GLUE color chart: white, aqua, silver, grey, stone greens, white, and sand.
• Grey stone panel (with horizontal slits in between stones.) |
| |
ceiling
• White ceiling.
• Ceiling gypsum panels draw large curves and spray indirect beam lighting from above.
• A good option when possible: receive direct sunlight from roof to enlighten the shop. In this case panels of sandblast glass will diffuse the daylight. |
| |
fitting room
• Option #1: integrated into a curved volume.
• Option #2: centered, and highlighted as a piece of Art.
(Use a waterfall feature, poster or water graphic)
• Option #3: centered, using panels to separate each fitting room, those panels creating
superposed wave shapes, right and left (plain colored panels). |
