Experience Design

The Atelier Japan collection showcases the very best of Japanese craft, we needed to design a space that would immerse customers in the detail of the designs and translate the beauty of each piece. We balanced the charm of the Grade II Georgian building with Japanese design elements, creating a space that welcomes guests to explore and connect with the rich stories behind each maker.

Campaign

With the new space ready to say hello to shoppers, we needed to re-engage and energise Atelier Japan’s social media following. Launching a 30-day campaign, we released beautiful organic content and targeted ads to get users excited about the opportunity to shop the collection in person for the first time in the UK.

Event Design

The new flagship store was officially opened during a private event, welcoming a carefully selected guest list of influential individuals and business leaders from across the UK to experience Atelier Japan. We designed a curated experience for our guests, guiding them through the collection and sharing the intricacies of each marker’s work.
