Malone Souliers at Place Vendôme: A Sculptural Luxury Retail Experience in Doha
Furniture, Retail / Lusail City, Doha / July 2026 / 52sqm
Our standalone boutique for Malone Souliers at Place Vendôme Mall reinterprets the brand’s retail concept in the form of an Architectural Pavillion.
Positioned beneath the mall’s naturally lit dome, the boutique is designed to read as a sculptural form from every approach while providing a calm environment to discover the collection.
The architecture is defined by a series of repeating arches inspired by the waved silhouette of the Maureen, Malone Souliers’ signature shoe. Wrapped in fluted solid surface cladding, the façade is punctuated by arched display windows offering curated views into the store. Clear glazed openings frame lacquered plinths in muted mushroom and soft pink, while slender polished rods support uninterrupted shelving that keeps the focus on the products.
Other arches are screened with fluted CONTURAX glass rods, a robust glass solution by German glass specialists Schott, diffusing light into the interior while introducing privacy to the fitting areas. The textured glass inverts the arch into a new material expression, creating shifting light and shadow throughout the day.
The interior is organised around generous circulation, with a marble display table positioned at the entrance for seasonal launches and key merchandising moments. Bespoke upholstered seating provides a comfortable setting for clients to try on shoes, while polished champagne metal detailing references the brand’s signature finish. Above, a powder-coated steel ceiling frame filters daylight from the atrium, with a slatted central panel carrying a three-dimensional Malone Souliers logo.
A fitted carpet and bespoke textured rug by The Rug Company soften the interior, reinforcing the material palette and creating a warm backdrop to the collection.
The completed boutique distils the Malone Souliers brand into a clear architectural language, creating a retail environment where form, material and product take centre stage.
