The project
Woodford Architecture designed this 6,870 square foot store to give a long-standing local jeweller a striking new presence. The site sits below a fast arterial road, so the single-storey building has a double-height roof that creates a strong silhouette and a large surface for signage.
A simple diamond motif reinforces the brand, and the architecture draws on the qualities of a cut diamond, with hard edges and angular forms. Inside, warm timber display cases sit under suspended lighting in a dark, open showroom. It was completed in 2024.
