If you wish to offer your students, collaborators, teams or even yourself some retail design training, you’ve come to the right place. Over my many years of teaching, I have often been told that my passion for this field is infectious, and my insights invaluable. Let’s see how I can bring you a similar educational experience.

a sector organisation seeking coaching for its collaborators
a retailer or design studio seeking training for its team
a retail design enthusiast seeking self-learning material
Since 2018, I have had the immense pleasure of guiding international students from diverse disciplines such as interior architecture, architecture, marketing, business management, fashion, graphic, product and exhibition design. At times, these were mixed to offer more realistic working scenarios.
The teaching formats I have managed have also greatly varied: from 2hr long online lessons, 2-3 day in-person guest lectures, week long summer school programs, ad hoc thesis supervision, all the way to full academic year courses. As you may imagine, this has led me to address a wide range of topics, approached through different “lenses” and in varying depths.
If you are currently considering enriching your students’ expertise with retail design education, I am confident that I could draft and deliver the best suited educational material for you and them.
Physical retail spaces offer a unique way for customers to connect with brands. To this day, they remain the only touchpoint in the marketing mix which allows customers to experience a brand’s universe in a 360 sensory manner. This means that retail design undeniably impacts the success of developing brands, but also of larger scale shopping destinations such as malls, outlets and city centres.
As a sector organisation that aims to support retail entrepreneurship and growth, you have likely witnessed this power first hand. You also probably know that few are the opportunities to access retail design education and coaching.
If this is something you wish to develop for your collaborators, be they your own staff, young entrepreneurs you support, public administration partners or other retail sector players, please get in touch. Together, let’s develop a coaching program that will lead your audience to deliver the most successful, society-focused, retail future we are all dreaming of.
The retail sector is in constant evolution. Brands need to continuously stay on top of market and societal shifts to remain relevant and deliver to new customer expectations. However, it isn’t always easy for those active in the field to follow these changes, and consider the impact they may have on their practices.
This is also true for retail designers, be they in-house or external consultants. Often their teams have set ways of working that ensure the most efficient project deliveries. Still, to align with the aforementioned shifts, it is important to periodically reflect on these ways of working and question if they are still delivering the best results. This is where a “refresher” or “specialty” course can prove useful.
Whether you are looking to train new employees, refresh your current staff’s skills’ set or add a new one to your offer, I would be happy to discuss how ce could provide training to support your team in staying on top, even ahead, of the game.
