Altar’d State, a chain of women’s retail boutiques, strives to delight customers in subtle ways. Facing the challenge of an ever-changing retail environment, they recognized the need to create a unique shopping experience at every location and engaged Ghafari to help bring their vision to life.
Each store layout provides flow and discovery throughout the space. Altar’d State pushes to evolve the customer’s journey through the store, starting with impactful storefronts that pique visitor interest as they walk through a shopping center and spark curiosity to enter.
The highly tactile sales floors and fitting rooms are designed to feel like a home with a distinctly feminine aesthetic. Dressing rooms are spacious to create a serene, comfortable environment and are meant to evoke a luxurious woman’s closet. Custom-stained glass, chandeliers, copper, greenery, and specialty plaster are all pieces that draw the customer to touch the store just as much as they touch the clothes.
The layout of each store is custom tailored to the location. Custom storefronts reflect the architectural vernacular and culture of the city. Each storefront also offers a deep entry patio. As the retail atmosphere evolves, Ghafari continues to work with Altar’d State to create inspirational and luxurious shopping experiences all over the U.S.
