ISBN: 978-988-14688-3-3 Size: 215x x 285 mm Pages: 240
Sales Points: Different from the store interior design collection, this book focuses on the overall visual merchandising design of physical shop, combining corporate identity design, visual identity and interior design. Revolving around the fashion, lifestyle and food stores, Fantastic Designs in the Store presents over 50 newest visual cases from all over the world to the readers, showing how to build the shop image from graphic to style. The book presents each project with high-res images and sophisticated description, making itself a reference book worth reading.
Editor's Recommendation: In the age of online-shopping, how can the physical stores attract shoppers, stimulate buying behavior and defeat virtual stores? The impressive and beautiful store visual merchandising design may help to fix this problem, for it can not only lure the customers cross the store’s door and buy products, but also create and reinforce the unique image of the stores and brands so as to anchor them in customers’ minds. No matter you are a designer seeking for the sparkle of inspiration, or a shop manager looking for integrated visual design, this collection of store visual design will serve you well, and you will definitely benefit from it.

Inspiration for the identity came entirely from books: through looking at various aspects and elements of books, contemporary, experimental approaches as well as traditional publishing, the aesthetics, the experience of reading, the materials, the nostalgia.

With great basic items, some assertive and original pieces, everything meshes well with the interior design of the store, heavily influenced by the industrial flavor of the Parisian halls. We can find a selection of clothing brands from all over the globe, as well as shoes, jewelry and accessories that are items that both owners need to fall in love with. The music area of the shop plays on the variety between vintage records and more current selection, from sharper niches to great pop records, from rock & roll to minimal. This corner reminds most visitors of London second-hand records shops which pleases “crate diggers” so much, not to mention dj’s and collectors of all horizons.

FRESHOP
With the incentive of keeping Freshop a leading player in their field, we decided that a complete re-branding is necessary. The solution was refreshingly simple: let's bring a rustic farm market experience to the cold urban mall.

Endless possibilities Using hand-drawn illustrations of mushrooms, avocados, cucumbers, and other ingredients, we designed a myriad of patterns which became Maki-San’s main visual identity. These motifs were applied throughout the consumer experience - right down to the packaging - to play up the endless, fun options available for diners.
Maki-San
What's in a name? To inspire customers in their Maki creations, we created amusing combinations such as “Kevin’s Bacon”, “Ebi Road”, and “Curry-OK”. The illustrated Maki rolls were extruded to reveal their ingredients.

A fresh take on sushi The client wanted to launch Singapore’s first ever fully customizable sushi store. Being offered a wide selection of fresh ingredients, diners could pick and choose precisely what went into their hand-rolls. "Maki-San" We proposed naming the store “Maki-San” for one simple reason: the word “-San” roughly translates as “mister” or “missus” in Japanese, and by using this suffix, each Maki could be uniquely personified. This idea also extends to operations: customers can name their own rolls however they choose to. The logo is made up of emoticons commonly used in Japanese pop culture.
