Clear Optometry

  • Location
    San Mateo, CA
    Year
  • 2010

Clear is a new typology of an optometry lounge in downtown San Mateo, that combines the full width of optometric services with a yogurt/tea bar, expanding on the meaning of clear as a lifestyle rather than just a product.

The ground floor level is divided in 3 main areas, the yogurt/tea bar, the display and sale section as well as the optometry service area that are connected by a series of architectural elements that run the entire depth of the store and that at the same time are emphasizing the unique proportions of the space. Display niches run the entire length of the space on both sides, while long linear custom designed tables and round custom light fixtures further dramatize the long and high space.

All aspects of the store, from the millwork and the built in furniture to the graphic identity, were custom designed by nottoscale in order to create a cohesive space in which every detail of the project complements the overall concept.
