Vernakular 2.0

Interior Design

The second venture of the watch retail shop, Vernakular 2.0 located just a stone throw away from its predecessor. Taking a bolder approach this time, they ingeniously combine a cafe with their retail space, featuring a captivating split interior theme. One side boasts a pristine, white-walled watch gallery, where designer timepieces are thoughtfully displayed from A to Z, paying tribute to its neighboring cafe with the use of untreated raw mild steel. On the other side, an industrious allure emanates from the cafe, characterized by concrete, timber, mild steel, and terrazzo elements. The entire space is artfully divided diagonally, creating an edgy and dynamic visual spectacle that seamlessly merges the gallery and cafe sections into an unforgettable experience of haute horlogerie and the intriguing charms of tropical brutalism, with cozy industrial undertones.
