BL Associates

Distinto, Bucharest — A BL Associates Project⁣
A new retail space, developed by BL Associates from concept to opening day. The brief called for a calm setting for premium footwear, and the design answers with textured plaster, warm wood, and carefully placed light. Layout, finishes, and custom furniture — all designed and built by our team.

Design: Paul Georgescu & Vlad Eva

As part of BDF GO! · Bucharest Design Festival, we gathered in Dorobanți at Molteni&C Bucharest Flagship Store for a conversation about the kind of design that never loses its relevance.

Thank you to Iulia Marta Ștefănescu - Intro, for moderating; Georgiana Stoica - Molteni&C Bucharest, for hosting; and to our guest Bogdan Ștefan - Audio Monkey, for tracing the stories behind Verner Panton, Gio Ponti and Bang & Olufsen, and for reminding us that heritage is never about looking back — it’s about carrying the past forward as a way of imagining what comes next.

To everyone who joined us in Dorobanți: thank you for being part of the afternoon. The conversation continues.
