Tilted upward view of a stairwell at the Bandai Hobby Store in Paris. Walls are covered in a full-wrap space mural with a starfield and Earth's curved horizon. A diagonal row of illuminated display niches housing Gundam scale models runs up the wall alongside a red handrail. Blue LED lighting lines the stair edges.

Gundam Timeline Stairwell at Bandai Hobby Store Paris

29 May 2022 · Paris

The stairwell at Bandai's Paris hobby store turns a functional space into an exhibition. A full-wrap space mural — starfield above, Earth's curve below — lines the walls floor to ceiling, while a diagonal row of illuminated display niches traces a Gundam timeline upward along the handrail line. The red railing pulls the eye up through the sequence; blue LED step lighting anchors the descent. Exhibition design doing double duty as wayfinding.
