Custom Design & Engineering Capabilities

Our in-house, interdisciplinary team includes industrial designers, engineers, project managers and your retail merchandising consultant.

This collaborative approach means you get:

  • more effective merchandising
  • faster development
  • greater value

We present our merchandising concepts using SolidWorks, a 3D design, engineering, and animation software. Designs are presented in 360 degrees allowing for rotation and zooming. Designs can be weight and stress tested in the program before prototyping to maximize efficiencies and reduce cost. Presentations and animations can also be presented using 3D Studio Max, a 3D modeling software, allowing us to show your solution in an actual retail environment.

Prototypes, Digital Photography & Test Marketing Capabilities

Nothing leaves our studio until we know it works. We construct full-scale prototypes to evaluate:

  • overall function and structure
  • product load capacities
  • shipping efficiency

We test displays at our development studio in Chicago, which features store fixtures to mimic a real retail environment. Our studio also contains professional photography equipment to document designs and create collateral display materials.
