When it comes to shop fitting, even the smallest details can have a drastic impact. From the moment a customer walks into your store to the moment they leave, the experience they have dictates whether they will browse, make a purchase or just leave. First impressions are lasting, as they say. Customers appreciate a well-designed, carefully planned and beautifully installed environment.
A look at shop fitting trends for 2020 and beyond will give us some inspiration on just how important design is in retail. Send the right message right from the start.
Staging
Product staging is not a new concept at all. With today’s focus on powerful design elements, staging can be taken to a whole new level. Put the focus on key products with a focus that features clever lighting, bold signage, themed displays, curated rooms or shop sections that ensure products stand out.
Colour blocking
A trend that continues to be successfully used is colour blocking. This can be used in staging. It can also be used to create focus walls, highlighting specific parts of the store and drawing attention effectively. Contrasting colours can be used, ombre effects can give the illusion of space and colour can be used to reinforce branding throughout the store.
Finishes
Timber and other natural finishes are another trends that shows no sign of going away. Natural brickwork, stone, concrete, granite, plaster, and textured surfaces are a big drawcard. This trend works very well in most retail stores as well as in restaurants and food emporiums. Bare raw metal and plumbing pipework are a big draw. Galvanized and hand-painted metalwork for shelving and bar work is still in. People seem to be drawn to the natural.
Lighting
No shop fitted environment is complete without lighting. The latest LED technology is a must these days in restaurants, bars and retail. You name it and LED can be incorporated. Old meets young, contemporary, modern. Economical retail lighting without the heat of the old-fashioned metal halide with brighter focused results.
