quest for something new and fresh. Brass and black
chrome finishes were popular in fixturing, reflecting a desire for a warmer materials palette. Textures
could be seen everywhere, whether displayed on
mannequins or in visual props. Vintage looks, including the mixing of metals and woods, also showed a
renewed popularity in many of the showrooms.
During the PAVE Gala, held on December 8,
Leonard Barszap, studio design manager at d-ash

Award. VMSD also presented its eighth annual Excellence in New York Visual Merchandising and Design
awards to retailers Aeropostale and Ralph Lauren.

White Paper
Students at Pratt Institute School of Art and Design partnered with
Ralph Pucci Intl. (New York) on Pratt+Paper & Ralph Pucci this
past December. Students outfitted 20 of the manufacturers new
Girl 2 mannequins in fashions constructed entirely of white paper.
A panel of judges selected the top three designs, with the top prize
(shown) going to Dana Otto, an industrial design student at Pratt.
In January, the exhibit was featured inside the windows at Macys
Herald Square before getting ready for transport to EuroShop. For

The Hotspots
The Pulse
Cologne has a youthful feel, says Claudia Horbert, director research
store planning and design, EHI Retail Institute (Cologne), adding
that the citys large student population attracts a wide range of fashion retailers and serves as a test market for new concepts. Colognes
Globetrotter concept store allows shoppers to test outerwear and
outdoors equipment in rooms that simulate extreme elements.
Dusseldorf is the countrys political and fashion center and its
residents higher incomes and strong buying power support
designer labels and other luxury retail, Horbert adds. Local fashion
businesses bring in $19.8 billion a year, with the regions biggest
fashion retailers Esprit, C&A and fashion department store Peek &
Cloppenburg generating $7.4 billion.
The Opportunities/Obstacles
German consumers are price sensitive, Horbert says, but outside
retailers must be aware that they dont make purchases based on
price alone. Its very important to have something special that distinguishes your company from all the others, she says, noting that
Swedish and Spanish fashion retailers are already offering quality
products at low prices. Food retailers in Germany face state-regulated limitations on store size, which have kept supermarkets from
entering the market so far. Fashion continues to be a strong sector
in Dusseldorf, which is home to five fashion schools and actively
supports the local scene through sponsorships of events and
awards. Danny Cross

Retail is re-examining what good design means. The new buzzword is customer-centric, and
todays design firm is increasingly being called on for cultural and demographic expertise as
much as for designing a store.
Shafley: Definitely. We not only understand the selling environment but we also have an acute understanding of shopping behavior, what motivates people to buy, how demographics affect shopping, and
also how to integrate all these various tools brand
communications, digital technology, visual merchandising, etc.

Hi, Tech
VMSD: There seems to be an enormous
potential for new technology in the
stores, and thats going to require some
design integration. Do design firms see
this as a brave new world for them?
Pray: Experience is a great thing, but its also a liability. It can help us see clearly where weve been, but
what we really need to understand is, more aspirationally, where are we going? What are the things we
dont know yet?
Hogrefe: And we can bring both kinds of thinking
into the equation. A lot of times, we challenge our

THE WONDER
OF NATURE
Whimsy, magic and nature are three important themes in visual props and decoratives,
says Linda Cahan, visual merchandising consultant, Cahan and Co. (Portland, Ore.). People are
inspired to do more wonder right now, she says.
Bright, saturated colors, new textures and
adding modern touches to traditional elements
are good tools to use. Cahan cites Anthropologie, which created a forest of trees for its windows using colored green rags and paper strips
instead of prefabricated forms.
For a touch of nature, try birds, branches or
flowers. Nordstrom recently tucked birds nests
into product displays, including inside slippers
and hats, for a campaign about nesting for the
winter. Any time you bring a natural element
into the store environment, it ups the perceived
value of the merchandise because its real, says
Cahan. Anne DiNardo
