In the heart of Bisceglie’s vibrant pedestrian district, an icon of style and sophistication stands out: the newly reimagined “Rubini” clothing store. With over two decades of local heritage, “Rubini” has embarked on a bold journey of revival, embracing a re-founding project aimed at transforming the shopping experience in the area. “Rubini” has long been known for its curated selection of premium clothing brands, offering a sophisticated choice for a discerning clientele. Over the years, however, the store’s physical expansion led to a less fluid interior layout, presenting challenges in space management. To address this, an innovative approach was needed. Architect Giorgio Di Bitonto was entrusted with the re-founding project, bringing to life a vision inspired by the concept of a gallery space. His design transforms the store into a seamless, continuous exhibition area, creating a unique environment for discovery. The new layout features a path along the perimeter, where a sleek metal sheet guides visitors through an engaging, discovery-oriented journey. Every detail was thoughtfully curated, from the metal perimeter clothing racks to the lacquered platforms, all contributing to an immersive and memorable shopping experience. At the heart of this unique, open space is a focal area distinguished by Pantone Rhubarb—a color chosen to create an architectural accent. Metallic materials, lacquered platforms, and bold architectural fragments are set against a herringbone-patterned, silver-gray vinyl carpet that wraps around nearly 300 square meters of retail space. Lighting also plays a critical role, with continuous light lines and accent notes highlighting display corners and drawing the eye of shoppers. This transformation would not have been possible without the invaluable collaboration of Gaudio Spaziodesign, who crafted the wooden furnishings, including display units, platforms, and counters that enhance the functionality of the space. Gaudio, a century-old Puglian company renowned in the field of Italian fine woodworking, seamlessly blends tradition and innovation to deliver high-quality, exclusive solutions. Gaudio’s commitment to sustainability also shines through, using green energy and responsibly sourced wood from sustainably managed forests. In conclusion, the newly transformed “Rubini” store is a standout in the local retail scene, where beauty, functionality, and innovation converge to offer a one-of-a-kind shopping experience. Thanks to the client’s forward-looking vision, architect Di Bitonto’s creative expertise, and Gaudio Spaziodesign’s exceptional craftsmanship, “Rubini” remains a prime destination for fashion enthusiasts in Bisceglie and beyond.
