Appealing to Ozlana’s ‘luxury youth’ demographic, the store embodies both a timeless and a directional aesthetic with feminine elements their customers are known to be drawn to. The fashion brand prides itself on using pure, raw materials from Denmark, Sweden, Italy and Australia. In keeping with this ethos, Pattern Studio embraced natural materials with a focus on minerals to sculpt the interior.
Located on level four of Westfield Sydney CBD, the boutique is fronted by a grand 2.4m wide brass-framed pivot door with a custom, primordial Onyx stone handle. The interior walls and floors are lined with honed London White marble, enveloping the space in soft calm compared to the busy retail mall across the threshold. With Ozlana’s staple product being the parka, pale blue accents enhance a wintery aesthetic against the snow-white marble.
