How We Work
Design & Development
Briefing corresponds to an initial meeting between the designer and our clients. This step is essential to start any project to align wills and interests or intent. It is at this moment that the blue-sky dreams and earthy needs are given to the experts to take concepts to reality.
After debriefing and understanding the client’s wants, the design team needs to have the space to work within. From here they can make floor plans or fit fixtures into bays or settings to maximize their function.
At this stage, our design team defines the project, studies how to optimize the fit, form and function so as to interact with the client’s customer base.
Considered the pre-project, this step determines everything: the colour palette, the substrates (metal, wood, plastic), the complementary pieces – graphics or lights and the overall form and functionality into the desired space.
This is when we develop the detailed plan inclusive all materials, specifying finishes, measurements, lighting, and graphics among others.
The 3D project emerges, and the presentation of all technical information is laid out explain the Concep and its planned Reality approach.
Prototyping
The preliminary act – think of it as the dress rehearsal before the
grand opening. It’s an intermediate step that bridges the gap between a pure, brilliant idea, and a final, market ready product.
For us, prototyping isn’t just an engineering exercise – it’s a critical tool
for minimizing risk and maximizing opportunity. It allows for:
•Early validation, lower risk – identifying flaws, issues and other risks to save on production and protect brand reputation.
• Feedback – creates marketing messages that resonate directly with the target audience.
• Build-Test-Learn – prototyping shortens the development runway – a faster, more confident launch
• Optimize Resources – focuses our engineering and design efforts on features that users use.
Global Sourcing
It’s far more than simply finding the cheapest supplier overseas. It is a strategic, data-driven approach to procurement that aims to leverage worldwide competitive advantages inclusive of:
01
Lower costs
02
Specialized expertise
Tapping into regions or companies that have superior production capabilities
03
Increased Capacity
Diversify the supplier base to ensure high volume demand
04
Superior Quality
Identifying world-class suppliers that meet higher specifications than domestic options
Global sourcing allows is the engine that powers competitive pricing, enhanced product features, and supply chain resilience mitigating disruptions such as natural disasters or political instability.
Global sourcing transforms purchasing from a simple transactional activity into a competitive advantage us competitive pricing, enhanced product features, and supply chain resilience.
Manufacturing
The process of specialized manufacturing, production, and execution of all physical and tangible elements that define our customer’s brand in brick-and-mortar space: The Reality.
Manufacturing is taking the design strategy and translating it into durable, high-impact fixtures inclusive:
Store Fixtures (shelving units, displays cases, product pedestals, gondolas, check-out counters, and fitting rooms.)
Signage & Graphics (visual communication, from storefront signs, brand or product feature printing, promo displays such as corrugate, menu boards and wall murals.)
Décor Packages (non-merchandising elements that establish mood such as architectural treatments, decorative lighting, custom millwork, thematic props that are unique to the brand.)
Why is manufactured a crucial
marketing investment?
Successful manufacture is not a cost cenater – it is a strategic driver of sales and brand equity.
Project Management
Our Project Management, in the simplest of terms, is the framework that turns a brilliant Concept into a Reality through on-time, on-budget, and in-spec adherence.
For us, the value of our Project Management extends beyond hitting a deadline it’s about maximizing return on investment, maintain brand integrity by mitigated risk, managing change, and preventing scope creep.
Project management transform marketing ideas from a series of creative activities into predictable, scalable, and highly effective commercial operations.
It’s how we ensure that our creative vision translates into profitable reality.
