With the festive season fast approaching, your store is about to become a haven for attention, loyalty and emotional connection. Here's how some of our favourite 𝗕𝗿𝗮𝗻𝗱𝘀 𝗱𝗼 𝗶𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗿𝗼𝘂𝗴𝗵 𝗦𝘁𝗼𝗿𝘆𝘁𝗲𝗹𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗴 (not just for Christmas!) 👀 Sight: From dramatic window displays to curated colour palettes and lighting, the @FarmRio visual experience sets the mood the second someone walks by. 🎶 Sound: It’s not just about Christmas playlists, it's about choosing soundscapes or live elements that mirror the pace and personality of your brand like @ApexRides, keeping the atmosphere vibrant and memorable. 🌲 Scent: A subtle fragrance can be more powerful than signage. Scent anchors emotion, triggers nostalgia, and turns a visit to a store like @CliveChristianCreations into an immersive moment. ✋ Touch: Tactile experiences from luxurious gift-wrapping stations to interactive product experiences like @Penhaligons. These invite customers to pause, engage, and connect with products. 🍫 Taste: Offering small seasonal treats or samples delights instantly and creates a positive emotional association with your brand.

This summer, White Stuff marked a huge milestone, 40 years of bold style and playful spirit. To celebrate, they commissioned Northbanks Design to take their anniversary on the road with a unique summer tour: a branded ice cream van road tripping along the UK coast for 10 days! Starting in St Ives, visitors were treated to free ice creams and sorbets, fun prizes, and even free surf hire and lessons with St Ives Surf School, the perfect way to capture those laid-back summer vibes. 🏄♂️🍦 With further ice cream stops along the way, Truro, Dartmouth, Exeter, Brighton, Eastbourne, and Whitstable - it was a real treat! 🍦🍨☀️🌊 At Northbanks, we were proud to help bring this vision to life with an activation that captured White Stuff’s energy and community spirit, creating moments of joy for everyone who stopped by. Here’s to 40 years of White Stuff and to many more adventures ahead! 🎉 Northbanks: 𝗖𝗼𝗻𝗰𝗲𝗽𝘁 | 𝗗𝗲𝘀𝗶𝗴𝗻 | 𝗠𝗮𝗻𝘂𝗳𝗮𝗰𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗲 | 𝗣𝗿𝗼𝗱𝘂𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 | 𝗜𝗻𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗹𝗹𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 #BrandActivation #BrandActivation #WhiteStuff40 #WhiteStuff #RetailMarketing

🚨 Exciting news! Northbanks Design has been shortlisted in the "Leisure, Best Visitor or Exhibition Attraction" category at the Creative Retail Awards for our work on the Samsung Flip Park** 🎉 It was designed in collaboration with Samsung Electronics, Skateboard GB and partners to showcase the best of British skate culture and highlight Samsung’s flagship smartphone, the Galaxy Z Flip 5, as the phone to have. In the heart of Shoreditch, an unused space was created into a one-of-a-kind skate park designed by King Ramps. At the centre was the bespoke “Z-line” skate route, inspired by the Galaxy Z foldable series, with Galaxy Z Flip5 devices available for visitors to capture moments , whether skating or spectating 🛹 Over two weeks, the pop-up came alive with a packed programme of events from exclusive skate film screenings and live art workshops, to a ‘skatewalk’ fashion show with Hypebeast and music curated by Rinse FM. Local favourites like Leytonstone Tavern and Doughnut Time kept everyone fuelled, while competitions gave visitors the chance to win Galaxy devices and limited-edition merch. This project tapped into skateboarding’s cultural influence across fashion, music, and lifestyle, creating an experience built to engage Gen Z and drive real brand impact. We’re proud of the team and partners who helped bring this to life and thrilled to be recognised for it! #CreativeRetailAwards #RetailDesign #ExperientialMarketing #BrandExperience #ExhibitionDesign #EventMarketing
