Ukrainian designers Sofiia Hupalovska and Nataliya Stukonog worked together to create the interior design of the inside shop in Kyiv. It is a sex shop designed with playful accents throughout including a phallic pouf. The two worked together at the architecture and interior firm Bkbek Bureau before Hupalovska set up her own studio in 2021. The Inside shop’s design is crafted with soft lighting for an ambient feel with rounded shapes and neutral tones.
Hupalovska explains more about the design process behind the project, noting “The concept behind Inside was to create a sex shop experience that defies the typical, cliche aesthetics associated with such spaces. Instead of the usual neon lights and stereotypical symbols like strawberries, Inside was designed to offer a subtle, sophisticated environment.”
