CASA CA18 >>

Virgin Megastore is a globally recognized lifestyle and entertainment retailer, known for its dynamic mix of technology, media and cultural products. With a strong presence in the Middle East, the brand continues to evolve towards a more experiential and customer-driven retail model.

The project originated from an invited international competition, where the proposal was selected as the winning concept to define Virgin’s next-generation flagship. The design introduces a Lifestyle Tech Boutique approach — a clear and flexible system that organizes the store into Lifestyle and Multimedia worlds under a cohesive spatial strategy.

A neutral grey canvas structures the space, while precise red interventions — Always Red, Always Virgin — define identity, hierarchy and orientation. Each department is conceived as a distinct yet connected element, allowing the store to evolve over time while maintaining clarity and consistency.

Developed by Landete+Ramos together with Berkshire Design, the result is a controlled, adaptable and forward-looking retail environment, where concept, identity and system come together to shape a new spatial language for the brand.
