LOOK: The Clean Lines and Gorgeous Lighting of the First COS Store in Manila

COS is in town and we're raring to go to the mall again.

Like the home trend everyone loves, we're loving the Scandinavian-inspired minimalist design of its first store at SM Aura in Bonifacio Global City.

The 380-square-meter store space was designed in line with the brand's well-known aesthetic of minimalism and sustainability: a bright, airy space filled with natural light.

Clean architectural lines create a space that is modern yet warm.

Its walls are clad with "Really," an engineered, textured material developed from upcycled textiles such as cotton and wool. 

The London-based clothing brand is part of the H&M group.

Take a look at its facade and interiors:

Modern and functional, one of the brand's tag lines is "Buy better, keep forever." Over 75 percent of its collection is made from sustainably sourced materials.
