architectural services for retail and hospitality

Places to shop and relax

We provide comprehensive architectural services and roll-out support in the Netherlands and across the EMEA region for national and international retail and hospitality brands.



With over 25 years of experience in designing and implementing concepts for major retailers and hospitality partners we offer two key services:

1. Lead architect for rollouts: we guide clients through the roll-out of their concepts across EMEA, ensuring consistency and efficiency.

2. Local architect for the Benelux market: we adapt and translate concepts and develop designs specifically for the Netherlands, Belgium and Luxemburg and we guide the client trough local permits and regulations.


Our surplus
With our background as a full design agency, we have a clear adagio that makes our added value evident: ‘as architects and engineers we create efficient local solutions by applying your brand guidelines. As designers we come up with solutions which will strengthen your brand with every branch you open.’ In other words, we are also designers who know the drill in retail and hospitality, and we like to think along with you. We call it branded solutions.


Branded solutions
Thanks to our design experience, we do not neglect to make designs better. Whether aesthetically, functionally or from a cost perspective. We however always come up with solutions from the core of the brand, solutions that strengthen the concept.


Efficiency
In today's fast-paced world, experience matters. Especially in retail. With over 25 years of expertise, we've mastered the art of adaptability. We work with dedicated teams per client and our streamlined internal organizational structure allows us to respond swiftly to process and project changes. We're in it together, every step of the way.


Supporting team and partner network
We have a supporting team with partners we know very well for expertise we don’t have in-house. This team consists of all the necessary consultants like MEP, structural engineering, fire safety etc. In projects we make them part of our team to be able to manage them directly. This saves time and therefore money. With projects across the EMEA, we also have an extensive local network to support projects.
