About Retail & Experiential Design
Experience-First Retail Spaces
We don’t just design stores - we create branded spatial experiences that let people slow down and actually feel the brand. For us, a shop isn’t just for selling; it’s a space where customers get a real taste of your story.
How We Craft Spaces
- Every project starts with figuring out how people move inside - making sure zones flow together, not just sit apart.
- Texture and color aren’t just for looks. We use stuff like stone and tatami to guide how people walk, touch, and see things. You’ll notice we often lean towards a moody, monochrome vibe to keep things feeling calm yet dramatic.
- Light matters. It’s how we shape the room, set the mood, and sometimes make products pop or disappear into the background.
Behind the Scenes: Bonnie & Saks
For Bonnie & Saks, we took on a tough site - weird columns, barely any daylight, but a tall ceiling that let us play. We slowed down the pace with rough stone floors, then softened up the gallery with mats. Motorized curtains did the reveal, turning shopping into a sensory-driven store design moment. The whole place feels quiet, almost like a retreat.
Flexible Ideas, Anywhere
We don’t stick to one formula. Our concepts work for flagship boutiques or tiny booths. Even in a 4x4 meter space, we found ways to make discovery part of the journey - spiral curtains, hidden reveals, always something unexpected.

My Story
We’re DIG Architects. Collaboration gets us going, and we love pushing what design can do. If you vibe with us, trust us, we’ll pull out ideas from weird column grids or tricky sites—those things just spark more drama and vertical play. Our spaces aren’t just rooms, they’re meant to slow you down, make you think. Sure, awards and features are cool (merci, gratitude!), but honestly, it’s making soulful spaces that keeps us hooked.
My Work
What We Do - Interior Architecture for high-end homes, bespoke commercial, retail, co-working, and product & furniture design.
Concept-First Design - Every project starts with a big idea, like a huge black scoop or veiled pods guiding the whole space.
Material & Texture Play - We use rugged granite finishes, gabion walls, lime plaster, and sometimes throw in warm oak or bold green.
Sculptural Spaces - Vaulted ceilings, sliding panels, moving walls—architecture that shapes how you feel and move.
Client Collaboration - We work best with clients who trust us and want to push boundaries together—partnership is key.
