SOUQ AL MADINA

Area - 77 sqm / 800 sqft Year - 2021 Type - Butchery Location - Souq Al Madina, Muscat

MLS Butchery is a contemporary meat store situated within the bustling Souq Madina in Muscat. The design concept pivots on the modernization of the conventional butchery, morphing it into a retail-centric establishment with a pronounced design focus. Covering an area of 77 square meters, this space is a testament to meticulous design that marries functionality with an avant-garde aesthetic.

In the interior, a minimalist approach is paramount, with sharp, angular walls serving both as display areas and visual dividers, drawing the attention of patrons from adjacent corridors. The color palette is a bold juxtaposition of the warmth of wood and the vivacity of red, with the former used in the signage bulkhead, a pre-existing mall installation that has been seamlessly integrated into the design. This wooden feature not only harmonizes with the interior but also serves as an anchor point for the store's branding.

Furthermore, the choice of red throughout the butchery is not only a nod to the color of meat but also a design strategy that evokes a sensory connection to the product. This color inspiration is evident in the careful curation of the space's visual elements, all working cohesively to create a narrative that is both aesthetically pleasing and conceptually grounded in the butchery's core business.
