TIANU – THE REVIVAL PROJECT

The project is an adaptive re-use of old and defunct space within the heritage precinct, that could effectively rekindle a tryst with the past. The brand – a furniture retail outlet – sought to relocate from their existing setup to a new store that would be conducive to their sensibilities, as furniture designers, art connoisseurs and deep admirers of architecture and heritage of the city.
