Dunn Paint

Dunn Paint is a concept store that combines a paint shop with a cafe and a wine bar. Coffee is served during the day and wine is served at night, while paint is sold at all hours. The interior avoids bright colors and uses warm tones instead. Micro cement in a single solid color runs from the floor to the walls, giving the space a natural and rustic tone.

The store was completed in Nanning in December 2021.
