Christian Koban Jewelry Shop by Studio Kattentidt - Berlin

Addicted To Retail (ATR) presents: Christian Koban jewelry shop by Studio Kattentidt in Berlin.

Studio Kattentidt designed the Berlin shop of jeweller Christian Koban as a single piece of furniture: a run of brass-framed vitrines on blackened steel legs, set against raw plaster and a concrete floor, with the workshop visible through a glass wall at the back. Nothing is hidden and nothing is decorated. The rings sit on raw stone blocks under individual spots, the packaging is stacked in the open and the bench where the pieces are made is part of the display. For a goldsmith whose selling point is that he makes everything himself, the transparency is the merchandising.
