Inside Ksubi
Posted 18th Apr 2008 by Laura Desouza
Mention the name Ksubi and in an almost instantaneous reaction the unmistakable vision of denim and flannel springs to mind. Whilst fashion is the label's forte, the designers also share a flare for interior design with a 2008 Design Award from the Design Institute of Australia. In a collaborative project with Herbert Mason Architects, Ksubi have created a unique interior space The Bombed Maché,  for their new store in Armadale, Melbourne. Clientele find themselves in a cardboard house tucked within a crisp white shell, where an array of art works line the walls and an exterior garden showcases the label's trivial 'Peaced Off' sculpture. The concept combines elements of  both a gallery space and an installation while remaining retailesque and environmentally friendly with most of the store constructed from 'throw away materials'. One might say it's a winner all round.
