Stephanides has been the name in luxury style in Cyprus since 1960, bringing their clients the finest work from the world’s most renowned watchmakers and jewellery designers. When the former Limassol boutique in the modern East area of the city reached the end of its life cycle, Dobas was appointed to create a brand-new concept.

The mood of the new boutique is bright and contemporary. Tones like beige, white and pastel green evoke nature and sandy beaches. Walnut textures and brass bring in a luxury atmosphere with a timeless charme. Light shades of stones and marble recall the materic properties of ancient art. Geometric shapes carved in plaster complete the look with a contemporary twist.

The reception desk represents the core of the space, and it is volumetrically coordinated with the design of the upper surface, creating an overall and eye-catching sculptural effect in front of the entrance. A customized geometric theme of the three-dimensional cladding brings a modern, contemporary look. Inspired by stone tiles which were lasered, Dobas created a new pattern with horizontal and vertical lines that were partly crossing or fading. This design element is then re-proposed in other details of the store, such as the metal partitions.
New landmarks are changing the face of Limassol, attracting a new clientele and accordingly new potential customers. Dobas’ design for the new Stephanides boutique in Limassol speaks this mix of modernistic and Mediterranean language and sets a landmark in the high-end retail scene.
