Outcome
Exuding the opulent aesthetics of a five-star resort, Hamad International Airport has undergone a stunning makeover designed to put Qatar firmly on the global aviation map. Spearheading the transformation of the flagship South Node, Wanda Creative has successfully married striking visuals with practicality of design, encouraging shoppers to browse the plethora of luxury brands in a methodical manner.
A cleverly composed catwalk featuring Solus’ tiles acts as a subtle guide through the emporium. Cut in a bespoke fashion, the soft charcoal tones of Krypton create an arrow-like feature, ably assisted by the bolder marble-effect Catcott products which form a seamless border. Solus’ Bicknollner tiles sit adjacent, their creamy complexion presenting a theatrical visual against their neighbours’ smouldering tones.
The tax and duty-free element of the venue has been reinvigorated, exuding extravagance at every step. A striking iridescent ceiling creates a sense of drama, echoed in the design of the floor below. Creating cohesion, Solus’ Bicknoller tiles, in natural and polished finishes, are present throughout, contrasting against the sultry shades of Easthorpe, Catcott, and Claverham. Guiding visitors towards the centre of each brand’s offering are circular mosaics featuring the gentle tones of Branston, Claybrook, Coasting, Holford, and Bicknoller.
