Eco-Luminance Oasis: A Biophilic Retail Revolution

Rix Yap's Visionary Merge of Light and Nature

In the heart of Singapore, a new retail experience emerges, blending the vibrancy of nature with the sophistication of modern lighting. Eco-Luminance Oasis, designed by Rix Yap, redefines the retail landscape by integrating biophilic elements with innovative lighting solutions, creating a space that is not only a shop but a sensory journey.

The concept of Eco-Luminance Oasis is rooted in the idea of harmony between natural and artificial elements. The design transcends traditional retail spaces by offering a transformative experience where customers can witness the interplay of light and greenery. This synergy is not just visually appealing but also promotes a sense of well-being, inviting visitors to linger and explore.

At the core of the design lies Verde Light's commitment to sustainability. By incorporating veneer lighting with nature-driven materials and premium LEDs, the brand sets a new standard for eco-friendly lighting solutions. The design strategy addresses the spatial identity issue by creating a unique and engaging environment that aligns with Verde Light's core values.

The showroom's biophilic design is a tribute to Mother Earth, featuring a central potted plant and a water pond that captures the sound of rain. The facade's large windows and bamboo plants blur the lines between the indoors and outdoors, while the versatile space functions as a showroom, office, relaxation hub, and pop-up art gallery. This multifunctionality is achieved through mobile furniture and a clean backdrop suitable for projections.

Verde Light's showroom stands out as an oasis in an industrial estate, with its green-adorned facade making a bold statement about the brand's dedication to nature. The design's realization technology includes red brick pavers, natural wood window frames with dark lacquer, and cement screed flooring, all chosen for their sustainability and aesthetic appeal. Smart lighting control systems add convenience and energy efficiency, further enhancing the space's modernity.

The Eco-Luminance Oasis spans 5500 square feet over two stories, meticulously designed to provide a seamless customer experience. The design's unique properties, such as its biophilic elements and smart lighting features, make it a standout project that has earned the prestigious Silver A' Interior Space, Retail and Exhibition Design Award in 2024. Rix Yap's Eco-Luminance Oasis is not just a retail space; it's a beacon of innovation and sustainability in the heart of Singapore.
