Pancreta Bank

Heraklion, Crete 

Pancretan Bank, a key driver of the Cretan economy for 25 years, has decided to make a fresh start. Our cooperation with the group started in February 2019 and continues to this day, with the study of stores and office spaces throughout Greece.

The focal point represents the creation of areas that goes hand in hand with the modern business landscape combined with the main source of inspiration, the culture, and the history of Crete. The primary tool for the image of the store is the symbolism inspired by the Cretan culture, which gives each space a separate identity.

For example, the timber construction that houses the essential functions of the shops and at the same time separates them, is inspired by the arbor bed, a fundamental element directly connected to the Cretan tradition.
