BITICO RETAIL STORE MATERIAL CHOICES

RECYCLING METALS:

LOOKING THE POSSIBILITIES OF THIS.

SUCH AS RECYCLING ALUMINIUM WHICH IS 80 - 85%

RECYCLABLE.

THE IDEA OF USING COPPER:

LOOKING AT THE VARIOUS FINISHES 

AVAILABLE WHEN IT COMES TO 

COPPER...

THE FOLLOWING  COPPER SAMPLES ARE

FROM A SUPPLIER CALLED 'COLOUR COPPER' IN AMERICA AND ARE USED 

TO DEMONSTRATE SOME OF THE DIFFERENT FINISHES

POSSIBLE TO ATTAIN WITH COPPER.

THE FOLLOWING TWO SAMPLES ARE

LACQUERED COPPER SAMPLE ON A MDF BACKING.

THINKING OF USING THIS FINISH FOR THE POINT OF

SALE DESK.

THE FOLLOWING ARE

 NON LACQUERED SAMPLES:

THESE TWO SAMPLE IMAGES ARE DONE

BY AN ARTIST AND SHOWS JUDST HOW 

BEAUTIFULLY EXTENSIVE COPPER 

CAN BE TREATED.

THESE ARE THE EFFECTS I WOULD LIKE TO 

IMPLEMENT (COMBINED IN ONE) IN MY RETAIL 

STORE DESIGN ON PAPER.

CROCHET COPPER DESIGN...

THIS LOOKS INTERESTING BUT NOT SURE

IF I WOULD IMPLEMENT IT IN MY DSIGN...

MAYBE IT COULD BE A GREAT WALL OR CEILING FEATURE...?

NOT SURE...

ANODISED ALUMINIUM SAMPLE IMAGE

ANODISED SIMILAR TO PATINA.

WOULD LIKE TO IMPLEMENT IT AS A SIDE FINISH 

ON MY MEZZANINE FLOOR WHERE THE FIXED SEATING 

IS SITUATED...JST BELOW THE BALUSTRADE 

(SEE RENDERED PERSPECTIVES).

PATINA SAMPLE FROM 'BENCHMARK'

I WOULD LIKE TO USE IT AS A FINISH 

FOR MY WINDOW FRAMES.

 RECLAIMED WOOD...HOW BEAUTIFUL IS THIS NOT.

WOULD LIKE TO USE RECLAIMED WOULD LIKE THIS 

ADAPTED TO THE COLOUR SCHEME OF MY DESIGN.

WANT TO USE RECLAIMED WOOD FOR BEHIND AND POSSIBLY

AROUND THE POINT OF SALE DESK ON THE FLOOR.

 THIS WOULD BE AN INTERESTING DESIGN

FOR A FEATURE WALL USING WHITE LUCCON

AND BACK LIT BY ARUP LIGHTING. THE LIGHTING SYSTEM SHOULD 

SLOWLY CREATE DIFFERENT SHAPES AND COLOURS LIKE PEICES OF FABRIC BEHIND IT.

LUCCON

 WOULD LIKE TO USE WHITE LUCCON ON MY WALLS,

FIXED SEATING AND SOME PARTS OR ALL OF MY  GROUND FLOOR

AND STAIRCASE... WITH THE LIGHTING SYSTME APPEARING LIKE IT

IS MOVING ACROSS THESE AREAS SLOWLY GENERATING PATTERNS

 LIKE PEICES OF FABRIC FLOATING ACROSS IT.

SEE THE FOLLOWING IMAGES TO SEE WHAT EFFECTS GREY 

LUCCON CAN GIVE.

I MAY ALSO STAIN THE WHITE CONCRETE A COPPER BROWN OR 

TO A SHADE THAT WILL GO WITH MY DESIGN.

USING RECYCLED GLASS ... REMELTED INTO NEW DESIGNS THAT I CAN USE IN MY DESIGN.

BUT IN SOME CASE AS A MIX OF TURQUOISE, BLUE,

 GREEN, AND BROWN. (SEE THREE IMAGES BELOW)

 QUESTION IS CAN BEAUTIFUL DESIGN BE ATTAINED

BY DOING THIS?
