Clients
It all starts with you!
We consider each project a collaboration with our clients – it’s our business to understand your business, and develop your vision of where you want to be. Together we discover opportunities and new ideas to elevate your brand and turn heads.
Our Complete Approach
Formadesign have been engaged to produce complete new concepts for clients to include the interior, exterior, identity and signage. We design identities that deliver what you want: outstanding sales and consumer satisfaction. We design exciting environments and furniture components that entice and engage customers and consumers to come in, stay longer and spend more.
Every touchpoint will be true to the concept design. We will seek to preserve the heritage without resorting to pastiche of a particular location. The concept design stage is used as a ‘conversational’ tool to be discussed with client and to better inform and convey understanding in a more detailed way of the needs of each area and to test the approach being applied in connection to that. This will lead to further precise CAD drawing work before detailed fixtures, furniture and display items are drawn up.

At this stage we start creating a comprehensive in-store experience. We go out of our way not to impose a signature look on clients, it’s about them not us. Our greatest asset is that we invest time in our clients and come up with a unique solution for them, not our own stylistic crusades. We work with the space as it is and try not to adapt it to our style but rather make the space work for us. This means every time we design a shop it’s very much related to the building or its surroundings.

Retailers can no longer rely on product and price. As technology delivers convenient retail, there must be inspirational spaces for consumers to experience the brand on a deeper level. We must out-think ever-more savvy customers. When it comes to physical shops, people need to have an enhanced experience and this stage is where we develop that detail.

WE WILL BUILD IT. Well-executed designs stand the test of time. From the early days of the Practice we were asked whether we could take our designs through to the first day of trading. And that is now what we do for more clients than not. As we like to say, “It ensures that they get what it says on the tin.” If they’ve fallen in love with the design on screen or paper it’s important that our clients are not disappointed at the end of the process.

Our experience at survey helps to flag to our clients any unknown potential cost or time impact at their chosen location. Needless to say that not every landlord will always flag these details to you.

After 20 years of trading we are known to many of the large landlords and local authority teams around the country and our good reputation helps us all to achieve design approval.

Transforming Shells to Stores
We care as much about high quality build, as we do design.
It’s what you don’t see that matters - A successful, tangible project is the direct result of intangible achievements; having great clients, hitting budgets, accomplishing schedules, and good relationships with Landlords, Local Authorities and Suppliers are among the most important.
