The project presents a spatial interpretation of the brand\u2019s visual identity through a blend of materiality, sculptural form, and narrative-driven detailing.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The store\u2019s <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.designboom.com\/tag\/facades\/\">facade<\/a><\/strong> draws inspiration from folkloric <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.designboom.com\/tag\/underwater-architecture\/\">underwater<\/a><\/strong> landscapes, with sculpted sea creatures and organic <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.designboom.com\/tag\/flower-and-leaf-art\/\">plant<\/a><\/strong> forms embedded into two tonnes of hand-carved natural <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.designboom.com\/tag\/wood-and-timber-architecture\/\">wood<\/a><\/strong>. CNC-cut elements and high-relief panels combine to create a textured, layered surface. Sage green and lavender pigments reflect daylight to produce a subtle iridescence. Completed within 60 days, the exterior sets the tone for the interior spatial sequence.<\/p>\n<p>all images by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/wabi_sabi.studios\/\">Janvi Thakkar \u2013 Wabi Sabi Studios<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wow wow-yellow\">Organic textured details define Papa Don\u2019t Preach Flagship store<\/h2>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Inside, the space maintains visual continuity with the brand\u2019s Mumbai outlet, applying a palette of soft pinks and blush tones across structural and surface elements. <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.designhex.in\/\">Studio<\/a><\/strong> DesignHex reinterprets existing columns as tree-like forms, their branches extending toward the ceiling in a gesture of organic support and creative growth. These sculptural components are coated in textured pink paint, contributing to both visual cohesion and material richness.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The flooring introduces variation through a patchwork of pink and white marble, punctuated by areas of micro-concrete. This combination establishes a tactile contrast while preserving the chromatic consistency of the interior. Large windows introduce natural light into the store, producing changing patterns of illumination throughout the day and enhancing the reflective and textured surfaces.<\/p>\n<p>facade carved from two tonnes of natural wood evokes an underwater landscape<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wow wow-yellow\">blurring the lines between fantasy, fashion, and architecture<\/h2>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Functional zoning within the store supports a smooth retail experience, integrating product display with spatial storytelling. The layout is intended to accommodate both circulation and moments of pause, aligning with the brand\u2019s performative and narrative approach to fashion.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The store\u2019s placement within the Dhan Mill compound aligns with the area\u2019s evolution from industrial zone to cultural and commercial hub. DesignHex\u2019s intervention positions the flagship as both a retail destination and a material extension of Papa Don\u2019t Preach\u2019s design ethos, situating fashion within an immersive, sculptural environment that balances ornamental detailing with spatial clarity.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>sculpted sea creatures and organic forms reference folkloric marine imagery<\/p>\n<p>CNC-cut panels create depth and layering on the textured storefront<\/p>\n<p>\t<!-- CLOSE ARTICLE CONTENT --><\/p>\n<div class=\"fullwidth-image\">\n<div class=\"layout-box\">\n<div class=\"page-content\">\n<p>sculptural elements serve both structural and aesthetic roles<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<p>\t<!-- OPEN ARTICLE CONTENT -->\t<\/p>\n<p>interior palette features soft pinks and blush tones<\/p>\n<p>pink and white marble floors contrast with areas of micro-concrete<\/p>\n<p>tree-like columns extend to the ceiling, symbolizing organic support<\/p>\n<p>textured pink paint adds material richness to structural elements<\/p>\n<p>\t<!-- CLOSE ARTICLE CONTENT --><\/p>\n<div class=\"fullwidth-image\">\n<div class=\"layout-box\">\n<div class=\"page-content\">\n<p>the flagship becomes a physical extension of the brand\u2019s identity<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<p>\t<!-- OPEN ARTICLE CONTENT -->\t<\/p>\n<p>natural light filters through large windows, animating the space<\/p>\n<p>ceiling design draws from botanical metaphors of growth and expansion<\/p>\n<p>display areas are integrated with narrative spatial design<\/p>\n<p>the layout balances movement and moments of pause<\/p>\n<p>DesignHex transforms the retail space into an immersive experience<\/p>\n<p>material choices reinforce a cohesive chromatic environment<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><strong>project info:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><strong>name:<\/strong> Papa Don\u2019t Preach Delhi<br \/>\n<strong>architect:<\/strong>\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.designhex.in\/\">DesignHex<\/a> | <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/design_hex\">@design_hex<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>lead architect:<\/strong> Shimona Bhansali<\/p>\n<p><strong>location:<\/strong> Dhan Mill, Delhi, India<\/p>\n<p><strong>area:<\/strong> 2,100 sqft<\/p>\n<p><strong>photographer:<\/strong> Janvi Thakkar, Wabi Sabi Studios | <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/wabi_sabi.studios\/\">@wabi_sabi.studios<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">designboom has received this project from our\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.designboom.com\/readers-submit\"><span class=\"s1\">DIY submissions<\/span><\/a>\u00a0feature, where we welcome our readers to submit their own work for publication. see more project submissions from our readers\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.designboom.com\/readers\/\"><span class=\"s1\">here.<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">edited by: christina vergopoulou | designboom<\/p>\n<p>The post <a href=\"https:\/\/www.designboom.com\/architecture\/fairytale-blossomed-silhouettes-papa-dont-preach-delhi-store-designhex-08-09-2025\/\">straight out of a fairytale, blossomed silhouettes wrap \u2018papa don\u2019t preach\u2019 delhi store<\/a> appeared first on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.designboom.com\/\">designboom | architecture &amp; design magazine<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>DesignHex conceives whimsical Papa Don\u2019t Preach store in Delhi \u00a0 Located in Delhi\u2019s Dhan Mill compound, India, the new flagship store for fashion label Papa Don\u2019t Preach has been designed by Shimona Bhansali of DesignHex. &hellip; <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":0,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[142],"tags":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v16.7 -
