a fresh look at store design

AS Adventure chooses a sleek and flexible store concept

AS Adventure is a brand that unites two worlds: outdoor adventure and contemporary fashion. In their stores, these atmospheres flow seamlessly into one another, from technical outdoor clothing to stylish urban looks.

To reinforce that balance, the in-store presentation received an upgrade. The question: how can the store feel more modern, sleek and design-driven without sacrificing functionality?

Together with the AS Adventure team, we developed a series of custom clothing racks based on our SMA system. This modular concept, built from individual tubes supporting one another, offers the perfect balance between flexibility and strength.

The racks were finished in black powder coating with a minimalist, geometric design, giving the stores a contemporary and refined appearance.

FROM FUNCTIONAL TO FLEXIBLE DESIGN

The new racks combine strength, elegance and adaptability. Thanks to the modular system, they can easily shift with changing collections or seasons.

A great example is the narrow clothing rack, 60 cm wide, which can be transformed from hanging rack to shelving rack in seconds. It can also be adjusted in height thanks to an additional extension piece.

With one design, we created four configurations:

  1. 60 × 155 cm – standard clothing rack
  2. 60 × 155 cm with shelves
  3. 60 × 175 cm – for longer garments
  4. 60 × 175 cm with shelves

The store in Lille served as a test location. The success of this first project shows that the system is ready for wider implementation within the AS Adventure network.

SMART DETAILS WITH AESTHETIC VALUE


At the top, the rack features a double bar, a subtle detail that is as functional as it is aesthetic. The upper bar is not meant for hanging clothes but provides visual balance and refinement. It also serves as the attachment point for the magnetic info display.

Thanks to this magnetic solution, the same display can be used on shelves as well, without any additional fixtures. This keeps the store image calm, coherent and stylish.

 

EXTRA RACKS, 
EXTRA POSSIBILITIES

In addition to the narrow rack, we designed two wider versions of 120 × 140 cm and 120 × 155 cm. They share the same design language and the double top bar, creating a uniform look throughout the store.

The racks are sturdy, yet light enough to move easily and combine in different ways. For extra presentation power, we developed a T-display that can be mounted on the rack, allowing garments to be displayed frontally or on both sides, ideal for showcasing multiple looks or themes in one place.

A smart solution that makes the shop floor more dynamic and increases the visibility of the collection.

SUSTAINABLE CLOTHES HANGERS WITH A NATURAL TOUCH

AS Adventure also chose sustainability when it comes to accessories.

Together with our design team, they developed clothes hangers made from a blend of recycled and natural materials: approximately 20–40% recycled plastic (already reused before production) and 60–80% wheat straw and rice husks.

The result is a strong, recyclable hanger that fits perfectly within AS Adventure’s DNA, where nature, adventure and style meet.

FROM COLLABORATION TO INSPIRATION

This project shows how design, sustainability and modularity strengthen one another. A store truly comes to life when every element, from clothing rack to hanger, contributes to the brand story.

AS Adventure chose a store concept that bridges outdoor experience with fashion-driven design, and we are proud to have contributed as a partner.

Because it is precisely that balance between practical and aesthetic, strong and subtle, that makes a retail space powerful.

NEXT STORY

We all know it: first impressions matter. And in your store, it’s no different. The moment a customer walks in, they decide within seconds whether they feel inspired by the atmosphere, the presentation, and the details. And it’s often those small details? like accessory displays, that make the biggest impact.

That’s exactly why we created our Interior Collection: dynamic displays that don’t just show your accessories, but also bring your brand story to life.
