The tiny shoe store "Carré" in Riga (Gre-cinieku, 5) gives the buyer confidence in the correctness of his choice. In a small space presents all the variety of natural materials. The shoes are displayed on wooden racks, on coasters of raw wood of rough texture, on paved paths and even on large boulders. All this as it demonstrates its strength and resistance to environmental changes. Water element here is a countertop undulating counter. The living texture, open brickwork of the walls emphasize the proximity of the room to nature. Blue plasterboard designs, glossy tiles on the floor, modern lighting and bright colors bring a slight dissonance to the naturalness of the interior. However, it is these strokes that help him avoid banality. Sure combinations of seemingly incompatible elements of the interior, shades and textures may well be considered as a kind of guarantee of the quality of the goods being presented.
