GHENT SHOWROOM

FEEL THE GLOW!

Ghent is a leader in the visual communications market. They produce high-quality marker boards and various other products to help teams collaborate. Our showroom design aimed to create the feel of a modern industrial loft with a refined, minimalist aesthetic. We utilized The Mart's architectural elements like exposed concrete beams and expansive windows to reinforce the loft theme. Central to the design is a "Cube," which cleverly conceals a wet column and doubles as a focal point and entertainment area with a European-style kitchenette. A carefully chosen color palette fosters an airy, gallery-like atmosphere, ideal for showcasing products. Light wood wallcoverings add warmth, while dramatic black and dark gray accents around the "Cube," paired with illuminated baseboards, draw attention and invite guests to explore the space further.
