RETAIL DESIGN BY-WALSKI LOCATION / SHOREDITCH, LONDON DATE COMPLETED / 2012 AREA / 400 SQM By-Walski is a brand that distills all that is cool about surf and skate culture. Jackdaw Studio collaborated with Frank Bywalski to create a brand space. Frank s ambition was expansive. A gallery like retail space would occupy the ground floor. On the first floor would be an open studio for the company. Above this would be an apartment. By-walski is a very international operation. Frank is an impressively connected figure with a lot of interesting people passing through. In this instance By-Walski defines the contemporary idea of a retail space feeling more akin to a gallery, the studio space having a cool and informal residential energy and the apartment feeling like a comfortable creative studio.

WORKPLACE DESIGN WIEDEN + KENNEDY An ongoing creative relationship with a global advertising heavyweight. We were originally appointed to devise and conduct a workshop for Wieden + Kennedy. The exercise proved sufficiently productive and inspiring to extend the exercise to redesign their two London buildings. A critical factor was the fact that the spaces had a very limited lifespan due to an impending relocation. This primary long term objective was to define the future building requirements for W+K. This took the project to a new and exciting point where interior design becomes creative theory. The work completed on the project will justify the effort and investment when W+K relocate. The project research also marks another exciting exploration into the design of standard product. This was always an ambition of the studio and the prototyping of furniture for W+K has become the starting point for a furniture collection. This innovative, simple and versatile modular kit of parts is central to the concept. Unique and responsive design for a very creative client. A complex project that defines the Jackdaw Studio pursuit almost perfectly.. Unit 7 Links Yard, 29A Spelman Street, London E1 5LX +44 (0)207 375 0213 hello@jackdawstudio.com
