The first thing that comes to mind when photographing commercial spaces, such as shopping malls or specialty stores is to be able to craft a story for an intentionally designed layout. How can we make a connection through the spaces and give imagery that enhances the viewers visualization It is indeed a challenge that is unique in a sense for photographers.

For this project, we are excited to have the opportunity to photograph the space of NITORI, a specialty store designed and built by Semba. This Japanese specialty store carries an array of furniture and deco to elevate living spaces. NITORI is located at Pavillion, Bukit Jalil—one of the newest lifestyle shopping malls connected to best-in-class retails. Amidst the myriad of display items and divided sections, our mission was to capture the store in a way where the purpose of each designated space is focused yet connected.

With a mix of techniques, we’ve strategized a series of photographs to carefully put its distinctive spaces into frames. Here, we have picked some of the finest of our photography work for this specialty store. Say no more, take a look at the outcome and see it for yourself!
