Getting creative with your retail design is likely to be a great way of getting people to notice you. However, is such interior design actually important to customers and is it actually likely to lead to increased sales or interest in the long term?
Whilst interesting designs will indeed draw people’s attention, overtly flamboyant or anomalous design may actually lead to people going elsewhere. Therefore, getting creative is only good so long as the creative process is very much aimed towards your target market.
Consider shops that have the USP of being extremely cheap. Many of these still turn great profits and so could indeed no doubt afford to get very creative with their designs. However, since their ethos is usually simplicity and getting straight to the point, interior designs that were unique or challenging would end up putting off those who simply wished to find cheap items quickly and easily.
As such, getting creative with designs needs to be all about balancing aesthetics and flavour, and ensuring that you are staying true to your brand’s own personality. For example, if you sell very unique and expensive clothing, then very unique and interesting interior design or even a modern art facade will indeed attract the right interest from the right people, and it is knowing your audience that is going to be the most important factor in getting your designs right.
One of the easiest ways to understand how to utilise creative designs for your own unique demographic will be to enlist the help of a professional retail design agency. Not only will they be best placed to help you get creative with your interior or facade, but they will also know which styles and trends are most likely to appeal to your target market right now as well as in the immediate future.
