The headquarters of the Greek fashion brand “Devotion Twins” are inspired by the dynamic lights of fast-moving cars on the National Highway.

The building’s standout feature is its façade, designed as a double-layered system to address different lighting needs. The first layer, a louvre skin, blocks natural daylight and provides a neutral background. The second layer is a steel structure with the brand’s logo, serving as artificial lighting at night.

By day, the steel structure acts as a silent screen overlooking the city. At night, it transforms into a captivating light display that mirrors the movement of cars on the highway. The goal was to merge clothing production with a concept showroom and office spaces, emphasizing the interplay between space and light.

Inside, the main entrance features a double-height translucent glass surface that conceals production spaces, offering a sense of tranquility. The showroom, occupying an entire floor, is designed with the “room in a room” concept, separating spaces with a slim steel frame and contrasting materials. The “black” meeting space features smooth surfaces like concrete, marble, and velveteen, while the “white” showcasing area uses hammered-finish tiling for a textured effect.

The showroom entrance presents a dreamlike welcome with a custom light frame leading to a golden gate. Light reflecting off the steel floor creates a fairytale-like experience. In the “white” room, roof hangers and steel beams form a three-dimensional grid of light and steel, while ground hangers add dynamic lighting, creating a spectacle of clothes and light movement.

Every detail in the headquarters is custom-made by ADD Architecture Studio, from hangers to furniture. Notable is the meeting table in the “black” room, which touches the ground on only one side, adding a sense of balance and serenity. The dedication to detail extends to the office space, where diffuse light highlights the triangular staircase sculpture and defines the main office area.
