Looking to level up your next event activation or product rollout? Take a cue from @Nike. By using custom graphics, integrated lighting, and bespoke merchandising display the brand refreshed the ethos of their Chicago flagship store to capitalize on the energy and excitement surrounding the recent local marathon. See how our team made it happen: https://lnkd.in/g9z-ypHi

How can a retailer boost engagement, generate social media buzz, and leverage exclusivity with a single activation? 🤔 By offering on-site customization, as Converse did recently at its 'For You' brand pop-up in downtown Chicago. With dozens of styles and colors of its iconic sneakers to choose from, the brand created a unique, collaborative experience for its customers and in the process, sold LOTS of shoes! We were honored to partner with Converse to help bring this concept to life.

Simple. Cost-effective. Impactful. Custom graphics are one of the fastest, easiest, and most cost-effective methods of refreshing a commercial space while communicating brand values and important information. What kind of statement would you make? #commercialinteriors #customgraphics #environmentaldesign

With Nike it's always "Go big or go home." When it came to the recent Chicago Marathon, their philosophy was no different. They approached us about not one, not two, but THREE separate initiatives for the big race: custom merchandising displays for their flagship store, a themed Nike By You customization station, and an off-site pop-up in collaboration with Heartbreak Hill Running Company. See how our team made it happen: https://lnkd.in/g9z-ypHi
