Risky shop was designed and created by smallna, a design studio and vintage gallery founded by Piotr Płoski. The task posed many challenges, as the boutique is located on the second floor of a tenement house, lacks a shop window and has an area of only 80 sqm. Here came the idea of doubling the area, by utilising both the space on the ceiling as well as the floor space. A hospitable, homely atmosphere is achieved, even though the furniture is actually hung upside down on the ceiling. Risky shop is designed against all the rules (it even defies gravity). It fully reflects spirit of the brand.
