A store design that celebrates Cologne

You can feel the special atmosphere as soon as you enter the store: the first floor is reminiscent of a market square - perhaps a homage to the historic Neumarkt or “New Market”. The imposing wall of shelves on the right-hand side, which is modeled on the famous Hohenzollern Bridge, is particularly eye-catching.


 

Read, linger, enjoy

The store deliberately focuses on quality of stay. In addition to the gondolas, numerous seating options invite you to linger: large tables with chairs, comfortable armchairs or hanging chairs on the second floor, which offer a panoramic view of Neumarkt. There is also a café on this floor, which provides a place to relax or work - complemented with coffee specialties and snacks.

 

A paradise for little readers

The store also has a surprise in store for children: The colorful children's area in warm yellow-orange offers not only books but also play opportunities. There are circular niches to climb into on the shelves and a large slide that leads from the second to the second floor - a real attraction for young visitors.


 

Modern technology for a new shopping experience

In addition to the extraordinary design, Thalia also relies on modern technology. One highlight is the Social Media Cube on the second floor - a glass box that influencers and content creators can rent for recordings or live streams. The outer surfaces of the cube also serve as a digital advertising space for readings and events.

 

A store that combines experience and retail

With its new store design, Thalia in Cologne has created more than just a traditional bookstore. The store combines local identity, modern shopping and inviting lounge areas to create a holistic concept. Whether it's a relaxed coffee, creative content or a reading adventure in floating gondolas - this flagship store makes buying books a real experience.
