International award-winning Architecture Design Collaborative projects that Experiential design in retail will continue to trend as more and more businesses seek out firms like theirs to help them create a more Human-centric design and interactivity to shape the customer experience. They have mastered the art of helping owners rethink their existing properties to make common areas more inviting and multifunctional by combining interactive storytelling with environmental design to engage an audience, increase dwell time, and cater to the entrepreneurial mindset.
“As mall owners reposition their properties to make them preferred destination points, the art and science of shaping the customer experience in collaboration with occupants allows designers to understand users’ needs and expectations. This translates to more returning customers, and more brand ambassadors. More and more businesses and institutions are realizing this and are seeking out experiential designers to help them create these strong emotional connections,” says Craig Chinn President, AIA, NCARB.
