Description

J&C Architectural are proud to have completed another two of our three U-Profile Glass projects with RESERVED in the Oxford Street and Brent Cross Shopping Centres. These two stores represent the latest in our ongoing collaboration with one of Europe’s largest and most modern clothing manufacturers. The RESERVED store designs are sleek and contemporary, showcasing their flagship fashion brand with sharp, clean lines that emphasize their cutting-edge approach to style. As a result, these stores offer a truly modern shopping experience.

The RESERVED Oxford Street and Brent Cross stores both feature Lamberts Linit U-Profile Channel toughened glass. This specialized glass is used not only in the shopping centre entrance façade but also within the stores themselves. Specifically, the U-profile glass is utilized to create dynamic internal spaces, using the glass on both straight and curved screens.This glass is not just functional but also an essential part of the store’s aesthetic.

Additionally, the glass is backlit using LED lights, adding another layer of modernity to the design. The LED lighting creates a unique and vibrant atmosphere, highlighting the beauty of the glass and enhancing the overall shopping experience. As a result, the lighting accentuates the clean lines and smooth surfaces of the U-channel glass, bringing a sense of sophistication and innovation to the space. Ultimately, this combination of design, materials, and lighting ensures that both the Oxford Street and Brent Cross stores stand out as prime examples of modern retail architecture. Through this project, J&C Architectural has once again demonstrated our commitment to delivering cutting-edge, high-quality solutions for the retail sector.
