Since 2020, AEXN has been collaborating with one of Lithuania’s leading bookstore brands – Pegasas.
Interior was designed to reflect the brand’s values while providing a calm and engaging environment for reading, browsing, and leisure. Distinct functional zones – such as reading corners, cafés, and children’s play areas – are defined using volumetric ceiling elements and subtle spatial cues. A unified material palette with carefully placed color accents ensures consistency, while a linear lighting grid forms a visual structure and supports orientation within large open spaces.
Contributed to a cohesive design vision across multiple locations, including Vilnius (PC "Panorama", 2018, "VCUP", 2019, "Ozas", 2024 ir "Akropolis", 2025), Šiauliai (PC "Akropolis", 2020), Panevėžys (PC "Ryo", 2020), Klaipėda (PC "BIG", 2019), and Kaunas (PC "Mega", 2020).
