To create the new shop “Bullit Cyclery”, we started with a long, dark unit with low ceilings, entirely divided by walls. We wanted to overturn that situation and create a wide, light space. To this end, the false ceiling and the interior walls were demolished and the rear patio was completely opened up, leaving the space clear and full of light. A bike shop with a homely character, with a living room to sit and talk, a kitchen to work in and a patio to let the light and air in.

Very little was built: a galvanised steel frame that separates the interior from the outside; a wooden floor of single-length boards, whose offcuts are used as a hanging system; and simple furniture made of the same wood, which serves as reception desk and workbenches.

The walls are painted white and the ceiling is earth-coloured, the same colour as the paving of the entrance and the patio, and simple pendant spotlights are used. Finally, a steel grille creates the boundary with the street, leaving the entrance free when folded back.
