Prada Jakarta has opened its doors, the luxury Italian fashion brand’s first store in Indonesia.
The new 420 sqm single level store is located inside the upmarket Pacific Place shopping mall.
The retail space, designed by architect Roberto Baciocchi, houses the women’s and men’s ready-to-wear, leather goods, accessories and footwear collections.
The external facade is clad in black Marquinia marble, while slim polished steel profiles highlight the light boxes.
The store has a corner location inside the mall, with slim strips of black Marquinia marble framing the entrance, display windows and large floor-to-ceiling windows that open up on the interior.
The space is designed as a succession of rooms, each featuring a different atmosphere.
The women’s leather goods area is defined by the signature black-and- white marble chequered flooring – a legacy of Prada’s identity worldwide – and green fabric-clad walls with alcoves housing displayed product, an original reinterpretation of Prada’s iconic display niches.
The space housing the women’s accessories and small leather goods collections is characterised by black marble-clad walls and display counters with coloured saffiano leather detailing.
The women’s footwear collection is showcased in an area defined by green fabric-clad walls with cut-in display niches. Beige carpeting and green velvet sofas create an elegant atmosphere.
Green fabric-clad walls also characterise the area dedicated to the women’s ready-to-wear collection, where transparent perspex cases exalt the product display. Crystal tables and green velvet sofas complete the furnishing.
The space devoted to men comprises an area dedicated to the leather goods and accessories collections and another room where the footwear and ready-to-wear collections are displayed. The area features masculine materials and finishes: ebony floorboards and walls, dark brown carpeting and cotto-coloured leather sofas. Polished steel display cases and counters with drawers covered in coloured saffiano leather complete the setting.
