Moon Store Jewerly Boutique Interior Design in Almaty — Fariz Mamedov

A little jewelry store in Almaty, Kazakhstan, where memories of Seoul meet a touch of Hogwarts magic! 🪄

My client brought the original idea from South Korea, where she had studied and often visited small local jewelry boutiques with unusual display systems. At the time, there was nothing quite like it in Almaty, which made this project both incredibly exciting and a little intimidating for me.

I wanted to create more than just a retail space — something closer to a mysterious little shop where every object invites you to stop, look, and discover. Working with the room's irregular geometry, we introduced natural wood, mirrors, soft warm lighting, greenery, and plenty of small details.

My personal favorite is the checkout counter, designed like an antique chest of drawers, as if some magical artifact might be hidden inside! And the hundreds of tiny screws used to display the jewelry on wooden panels? Every single one was installed by hand.

The store has since become a much-loved spot in the city, and I still get genuinely excited whenever I come across it in someone's photographs or videos. Perhaps that's the greatest compliment to our work — when a space you've created begins to live a life of its own. 💛
