Modern Retail asked me about the challenges facing digital native brands as they expand into physical stores, but also the significant upside that it gives the brand! I truly enjoy helping online brands make the transition to physical stores. Digital native brands, competing in the online/social media space, develop really clear and well defined brand visions. It is incredibly satisfying to actualize these retail brand visions into built space. In this article I use the term “visceral validation” to describe the reaction of an online customer walking into a brand-aligned physical store for the first time.

Modern Retail asked me for my ideas on designing physical stores for digital native brands, and I’m honored that they chose to use my thoughts to close the article. “”It’s not just a question of, ‘Use the same fonts and colors,'” he explained. “It’s a question of saying, ‘The online experience is a legitimate retail experience, and we have to extend that relationship in the physical space. We can’t contradict the way that you shop online in the physical space.'”” I believe in the importance of crafting brand continuity across every channel and form of customer interaction. The role of the retail designer has always been how to translate the brand into physical form, crafting the customer interaction and brand journey. The challenge is that the brand journey now very much happens online, before, during and after the store visit, and you have to design within that context.
