Cloudy skies above at Oasis



I took these photographs earlier today of the Oasis store at Cribbs Causeway, Bristol. What caught my attention were the patterned clouds hanging from the ceiling. I really like the way they have designed the props in patterns similar to those in the products displayed. This concept could be used by a range of brands, particularly by those who have a signature print, for example Paul Smith's stripes or Laura Ashley's vintage florals.

Other elements to the display such as the poodles on the window pane are not in my opinion as strong, but I do like the way the leads held by the mannequins link to the window stickers of poodles to look as if they are walking them.
