Retail contributes to 40 per cent of the projects we handle.

The key to starting a retail design is its product. We work on aspects like product are to be displayed and the aesthetics to be followed. Then comes the space planning and concept development with material exploration. Lighting provides much more than just ambience, it helps to guide customers through the store. 

That way, we have completed many projects. Goodwin Jewellers, Prathamesh Jewellers, Navalkha Jewellers and Wellness forever – Pharmacy Store are few.
