About Scentbon Perfume Retail Store
Scentbon Perfume is a fragrance store in Taipei, set in one of the city's old business districts. The front door is made of iron and wood, linking the modern interior with the street outside. The shop window brings natural light inside. The handles and signboard are made of stainless mirror, which reflects light and the branches of a Frangipani tree in the front garden. Two see-through stainless steel shelves display more than 240 fragrances in front of the original brick walls. Items can be moved and replaced easily, so customers and staff can reach every product directly.

- Research
- The store is located in one of Taipei’s old business districts. The front door is made of iron and wood to connect the modern style design of the indoor area and the streets on the outside.
The store’s shop window captures natural light into the store. The handles and signboard are also made out of a stainless mirror, which reflects lights and the branches of the Frangipani tree in the front garden. - Inspiration
- Inspired by the pairing of breathing inhales are always followed by the exhaust, and breathing brings sense into our cells. The designers used the two showcase shelves to present human breathing in and breathing out.
- Project Duration
- The project was finished in 2022 in Taipei.
- Operation Flow
- The design changes the way people shop in a fragrance store. In Taiwan the way luxury brand shops are designed often makes shopping for products hard, consumers have to ask for ascents from staff members to reach each item. However, our design gives people more space and more control over how they would like to shop.
