MANITO is devoted to creating high-quality living experiences for those who enjoy life. say architects merges the elegancy and exquisite, wishing to portray the softness of the space through mono-white colour. While the various textures express the subtleness of the space. Injecting the flow of vitality, activates the space.

The entrance is adorned with a sleek jade stone facade, with a warm texture extending to the door handle. Upon opening the door, satin unfolds and weaves its way inside, with the entrance facade and walls featuring rounded curves, all enveloped in silk. The edges of all fixtures within the space are accented with silver trim, simulating the fine edging of silk products, adding an extra touch of sophistication and uniqueness. Organic curves connect seamlessly throughout, softening the edges of materials and allowing the vitality of life to flow through the space.

The overall space is designed with a clear and natural flow of shopping, featuring a two-way entrance and exit system. Home products are available for immediate experience at the entrance, while more private clothing items are showcased in the inner rooms. Display shelves are built along the walls, preserving a more spacious area for movement. The central display table is crafted from shadow wood, with wood pieces cut into unconventional shapes and stacked to create the contours of waves. The unique cloud-like grain of the natural wood spreads across the surface, resembling a subtle ink painting.

The back wall of the display table is fitted with a frosted acrylic panel, allowing delicate light to penetrate and reflect a silk-like texture, giving the space a lighter feel. Additionally, an independent display cabinet is added on the other side of the wall, with a flexible and open cabinet wrapped in silk print, adding a more playful element to the display. The refinement of the space is meticulously depicted from the outside in, while the product experience is felt from the surface to the core, deeply engaging with the ultimate pleasure brought by silk.

A consistent color scheme keeps harmony and comfort throughout the space, yet the unique textures of different materials enrich the spatial layers. Say Architects intends to intertwine natural materials, allowing nature to breathe within the interior. The soft exterior wraps around the inner brilliance, and as one looks from the entrance inward, the original stone fades, and light and shadow flow, with each detail offering a different sensory experience.
