Excellent design turns challenges into opportunities. In order to deal with the irregular geometry of the space, the designers of Pâtisserie Antoine in Bordeaux, France, created an interior whose lines not only mask the inconvenient structural and mechanical elements, but are a statement in themselves.

The symbolism is clear. The cakes are treated here more like jewelry on display, and the vibe is indeed that of a luxurious store.

Behind the cakes, steel sheets with reflective qualities allow customers to view them from all angles.

Other geometric structures interrupt the horizontal flow of this elongated display, creating a viewing area for chocolates and macaroons and another floating display for biscuits and tarts. Offering some necessary contrast, a few wood columns are placed in the center of the store, with more cakes on display.

This is another convincing proof that less is more. The clear lines and strict color palette reduced to only white, black and gray, come together into a space that places the emphasis on the patisserie products.

Light is an important part in the general patisserie store design, working in tandem with the black ceiling mirror and lustrous resin finish of the display structures to create a clean, almost futuristic look.
