Case study
The thinking behind the build.
The client’s challenge, the audience, the spatial idea, key materials, practical features and the final result.
Challenge
Sell and showcase a homeware range in twelve square metres without the space feeling cramped or temporary.
Audience
Shoppers, local press and wholesale partners visiting a three-week activation.
Spatial idea
Low plinths and a single arched display wall frame the products, with a till point tucked to one side to keep the centre open.
Key materials
Lime-washed ply, recycled-plastic plinths, linen-wrapped panels, warm LED track lighting.
Practical features
Lockable stock drawers, overnight security screen, two-hour installation.
Result
An inviting space that people stepped into, rather than walked past.
