Giant Gallery
Giant gallery gift shop opening and launch. This brand new artist run independent gallery space also includes a gift shop that compromises a collection of Giant merch, a reading room with stacked library of art books and magazines, plus an ever changing offering of art related products. Exhibition led books and artists products also available.
The Brief
Stuart Semple set about creating this new art space he asked me to come on board and be consultant on the gallery shop. We wanted to showcase all the great artist products and books that could be bought after visiting the gallery. The shop is ever evolving in an open plan area.
The shop had existing plywood units which I stained black and added a tiled top. I designed a large scale entrance counter covered in white square tiles, and made smaller versions as props for the shop units. Small cube side tables were also made for the reading room – tying every area in visually.
I curate stories and product selections for each new exhibition, enticing visitors to buy art related items. They also can stay and read in the reading room, which has a comfy interiors feel.
“I have to say working with Jo is a total dream. The GIANT gallery shop would be nothing without her. You’ll never find someone with that creative sense, commercial savvy and ability to pull off the unimaginable with such a great attitude. Do yourself a favour and hire her now. You’ll look great and your project will just work.”
