Design Statement

The initial and most important aspects of our retail design are functionality and proper space planning. The organization and arrangement of sections within the department store is most vital in producing the most sales for the company. Also, display choices and assortment of displays will be necessary. To steer clear of tradition “commercial retail spaces” we will be adding a more formal, ‘boutique’ feel to our design; including more colors and many diverse lighting choices to also generate more sales. But will still be keeping with regulation commercial safety and codes. Lastly, but just as important we would like to use as many economically friendly choices as possible including flooring, wall covering and energy saving selections.
