We Design for Modern Retail

Since its founding in 1978, Shea has built relationships with top retailers around the country. Our design team has created retail spaces for national brands, boutiques, stores in indoor and outdoor malls, and more. We know how to create a space that’s an extension of a company’s brand, a place where shoppers want to spend time and enjoy visiting. We use our research capabilities, data, and business savvy to understand and apply design principles to what shoppers are looking for in modern retail.

Creating Fresh Retail Brands

Shea creates total, all-encompassing experiences in every retail space that we design, bringing a brand to life through its physical space—but it all starts with that conceptualization. Our design philosophy is to hit on every sense, every touchpoint, every feeling to give shoppers a completely unique, welcoming experience, beginning with a name, logo, and all of its extensions to create a total brand experience for customers. We design for you—to reflect your vision, your vibe, your passion—with the business knowledge and experience to back up every choice, and ability to help you through every step of the retail branding process.

  • Shea uses multiple architectural points to create retail stores that are energetic and compelling, places where shoppers want to linger.
  • Our team’s experience spans a wide range, from designing single stores to prototypes for national rollout, always keeping the client’s goals and needs at front of mind.
  • We’re a design firm that works for you—determining how to best connect with your customers through a space and ultimately setting our clients up for long-term business success.
