    sprinkles folio 2017 © a l m project inc sprinkles folio 2017 © a l m project inc a l m project’s design for the first Sprinkles bakery, in Beverly Hills in 2005, was driven by the desire to express the joyful spirit and quality of its singular product, the cupcake. Designing a store for a single product that also happens to be rather small, was both challenge and liberation. Because the central narrative of the space was the notion that cupcakes evoke nostalgia and childhood memories, it was key to put the cupcake on stage, and then to create a whole world around it. sprinkles folio 2017 © a l m project inc We started with the design of the display: the signature cupcake array – in which each cupcake is precisely placed in a grid – communicates care with its organized appearance, and by preventing the cupcakes from touching each other, keeps the frosting perfect every time. Glimpsed through the clear wrapper peephole in the front door, the cupcake array it is at the heart of the store and the first thing the customer sees. From there the space unfolds: fun, approachable, yet sophisticated. Intimate in scale, it is made to recall European bakeries, awash in natural light and flooded with the scent of baked goods. sprinkles folio 2017 © a l m project inc Shortly after the opening of the world’s first 1 2 3 cupcake-only bakery, our role expanded from then on functioning as architect, creative director and design agency for all aspects of the Sprinkles universe. And soon Sprinkles grew: from store to website to app, from Cupcake Mobile to Ice Cream Cart to the first 24- hour Cupcake ATM, we designed every element to be delightful and resonant for customers young and old alike.
