This contemporary design by The Scientist for a project in Leedon Heights makes for a creative display. The clutter-free design approach combines both form and function. It allows for the substantial collection of high-top sneakers to be cleverly tucked away, whilst simultaneously acting as an elegant display piece.

The curved edges of each display window quietly complement the rest of the interior within the abode. Dark wood panels lined with gold accents create a sense of grandeur, while the warm display lighting illuminates the sneakers as showpieces. With the way the racks are designed, the display can accommodate high-top sneakers, ankle boots and even platform shoes.

Glassed walls and balconies enable the garden in the courtyard to be visible from every part of the house. It lets the family a couple and their three grown sons, one of whom is married with a child feel like they are living in a resort. Tan also ensured that many of the fullheight windows are operable to capture the prevailing north-south winds.
