The store’s interplay of Sevenfriday’s industrial chic materials and designs give the place a sophisticated ambience.

Sevenfriday Space is an extension of the Swiss lifestyle brand Sevenfriday founded in 2012 by Daniel Niederer.

Their wide range of industrial inspired watches, eyewear, accessories and apparels remind their clients to live every day like it’s Friday.
“As a lifestyle brand, Sevenfriday initially started off designing, manufacturing and selling industrial inspired watches before deciding to increase our range with other products so that customers can easily get other accessories and apparels to complement their Sevenfriday watches. It is essentially an effort to offer lifestyle, in the deepest sense of the word, to our customers and letting them express themselves,” said Daniel Niederer, Founder and CEO of Sevenfriday.

The success of Sevenfriday Space started in Jakarta in 2016. Today, it continues to captivate people on 3 different continents. Each of the 17 Spaces all over the world carry slightly different concepts that make them unique from one another. But one integral piece that remains in all of them, as can be seen at Sevenfriday Space KL, is the alluring neon sign that spells out “Show me don’t tell me”.
“The neon sign is the Space’s main message that we hope could encourage passionate and like-minded people to gather and have meaningful exchanges. Because no matter where we are, there will be different cultures to connect with and life stories worth sharing over some great food, music, drinks and fantastic artworks,” Niederer added.
