In the heart of Valencia is located "La Estrecha", one of the most girded estates in Europe. In this strategic location, where tourists are photographed, one of the most genuine entrepreneurs of Valencia, will open his new store. "A new store that looks like it has been there all its life", that is the client's wish. The premises are very small. Therefore, it is proposed to free up as much space as possible. The walls are converted into shelves andthe shop windows as well.

This furniture is designed to help keep order in the store: a one-meter plinth with space to store the emblematic hat boxes, and a body to arrange the hats. The window displays, whose function is to attract the attention of pedestrians, are organized so that each hat on display is the protagonist. In a double-height area there will be a spatial structure made of hats, which will envelop the customer in an atmosphere of fantasy. A single material is proposed; wood, which will give warmth and patina to the place.
