CHEAPO FOOTWEARApril 2008In the spring of 2008 DFTS designed the new Cheapo Footwear shop in central of Stockholm. We decided to focus on two main issues when designing the shop. First of all, to find a clever way to display shoes, and second to deal with the fact that Sweden is a very badly light country most of the year. Visit the store at Götgatan 28, 11846 Stockholm, Sweden.

BELLRoom divider/ Cord collector. The idea was born out of the problem we have with cords. It is not so good looking having lying around chucked away under or behind something. So we brought out the most obvious. This was also made at the time when we were playing around with size, what happens with an object when it is enlarged. We imagine this would look great in big office landscapes.
