The ongoing evolution of the retail design world: towards a renewed customer experience

Today, the world of retail design is undergoing a period of deep evolution and renewal: shops and boutiques constantly need to rethink their retail spaces from both an aesthetic and experiential point of view to win the interest of an increasingly demanding public. 

This constant transformation carries with it endless business opportunities, but also many new challenges to face. Designing increasingly engaging environments through a contemporary style is an excellent solution, which has important effects on the customer experience: it allows not only to better communicate a brand image with its identity values, but also to respond to consumers' new purchasing requirements. 

In this article we will discover why today the use of porcelain stoneware is very advantageous. We will learn which are the ideal solutions proposed by Caesar today to effectively transform commercial premises into a unique shopping experience.

When creativity meets porcelain stoneware

In the design of retail spaces (offices, restaurants, boutiques, showrooms or shopping centres), the choice of floor and wall tiles is a very important opportunity to ensure increasingly engaging and customer-driven shopping experiences.

A special size and a particular decoration can make all the difference. The continuous flow of customers passing through the stores every day also makes the use of durable and easy-to-maintain materials increasingly useful. We are at that stage where creative research meets the versatility of porcelain stoneware, a material able to guarantee important technical performance. Stoneware solutions offered by Caesar for commercial and public activities are anti-slip, resistant to stains and humidity, do not undergo chromatic changes over time and are easy to wash. 

It comes in a rich variety of styles and sizes. Hence, no limits for the creative imagination of designers and planners. Let's discover Caesar's latest collections perfect for meeting the latest retail design requirements.

The metal effect: the contemporary choice with a metropolitan flavour

Another major trend in retail design is the industrial aesthetic recreated through metal-effect porcelain stoneware surfaces. In this case, the porcelain stoneware slabs of the Alchemy collection are able to transform rooms by recreating an atmosphere with a strong visual impact. The varied textures of the metal effect follow unpredictable paths and the surprising colours of oxidation are able to light up spaces. The effect generated is sensational and the advantages from a display point of view are remarkable: the brightness of the colours helps to better read the space and guides the consumer to a unique experience with a metropolitan taste.

The marble effect for elegant continuity between spaces

Many boutiques - especially in the luxury fashion market - are inspired by the beauty of nature. Marble is a valuable material with important advantages from an aesthetic point of view: it creates seamless continuous spaces, exploiting textures and plays of light with an extraordinary visual impact. 

Continuous research into the very best technical and production solutions has led Caesar to develop marble-effect ceramic floor and wall tiles that contribute in a significant way to commercial projects requiring a combination of elegance and exclusiveness. 

In this regard, Caesar offers a wide range of colours, sizes and finishes that lend themselves very well to the store concept. Inspired by the greatness of nature, the Anima Wonder collection recalls in its different declinations the complex movements of the veining and the brightness of a precious and refined material such as marble, reinterpreting the beauty of the detail in favour of contemporary designs with a traditional taste.
