Then the existing wooden elements of the building were preserved - floors, ceilings, shelves and frames - and the newer metal door was removed and replaced with a new wooden, traditional type. Walls and floors were plastered, the oil paint covering the windows was removed, the necessary color interventions were made and the establishment and representation of the grocery store was followed - as much as possible - as it was kept in the memory of the residents during its 60-year operation.The wooden bench and display cases, the old scales and boxes, the boxes with the threads and buttons, the cupboards and bottles, the old student bags and all kinds of boxes and product packaging, as well as many rare metal billboards, were placed. in the area of ​​the old grocery store to evoke nostalgic memories of the older ones and to "tell" pages of modern history to the younger ones.
