To help the brand build a solid, successful foundation for its long-term brick-and-mortar strategy, Madison Reed partnered with MG2 / The Lionesque Group to launch its first pop-up store in New York City.

With a six-month lease, the goals of the project were multi-faceted and included everything from introducing the Madison Reed brand to NYC and building awareness, to testing the viability of brick-and-mortar in order to acquire new customers and increase revenues of both one-time purchases and subscriptions. 

As a full-service partner, The Lionesque Group team provided a complete turn-key experience. Beginning by securing a retail space in Flatiron—a neighborhood with a high density of the brand’s target demographic—the team worked together with Madison Reed to conceptualize, design, source, budget, and bring to life the aesthetic and store flow for the first-ever Color Bar in just five weeks time.

Following a wildly successful launch—during which bookings increased daily—Madison Reed went on to open up a permanent location in Flatiron, with the design/build assistance of MG2 / The Lionesque Group, just a few months later, in addition to being named “Best in Beauty 2017” by NY Magazine.

Periodic: A Popup Shop

创新品牌的快闪店全包设计方案。

In today’s retail landscape, many companies find themselves hoping to test the waters of a brick-and-mortar investment before committing to a longer lease. Periodic—designed and implemented by MG2 / The Lionesque Group—is an award-winning, turn-key space located in the South Lake Union district of Seattle created for brands to activate pop-up experiences in a seamless way.

该项目独特的挑战的是打造兼具B2B和B2C功能的全方位服务平台。设计团队密切关注各种细节，从Periodic这一项目名称、字体和徽标，到装置的模块化和功能性，还包括入驻企业的入职和离职流程设计。

From two weeks to two months at a time, Periodic gives brands an opportunity to have a presence in a fast-growing, highly trafficked neighborhood. The platform is designed to set them up for success, taking the jurisdictional weight off their shoulders and allowing them to test for viability, grow brand awareness, or trial a target demographic in a short amount of time with an efficient investment approach.

Along with a fixturing package designed to flex and modulate to accommodate individual merchandising and storytelling needs, each curated brand has access to a local marketing company and a best practices playbook. The space itself—a glass building on a corner lot—acts as a billboard, creating a truly unique, hyper-accessible, out-of-the-box pop-up solution that both brands and the community are already benefitting from.

For its unique consumer experiences and experimental turnkey platform that allows for brands of all sizes to test the brick-and-mortar waters in downtown Seattle, Periodic: A Popup Shop was honored as one of Fast Company’s Most Innovative Retail Designs of 2021.

设计适合所有季节的高雅商店

Seattle Chocolate的jcoco系列将融合了全球风味的高品质巧克力与高时尚的形象和对社区的坚定承诺结合在一起。 MG2的Peter Stocker在生产线的早期与jcoco紧密合作，以开发其独特的品牌概念和包装。有了这种见识，Stocker和MG2团队在他们的第一个独立地点成功地将jcoco品牌带入了生活。

MG2设计的位置反映了一家快闪店的灵活性和互动性，但其永久性实体的高端细节与时尚的jcoco品牌相得益彰。 MG2设计的商店在七个月的运营中经历了三个完整的转变，每个设计概念，店内活动以及从季节性巧克力中汲取灵感的商品。

jcoco弹出式窗口清楚地表示了端到端品牌讲故事的影响以及仅在实体店中才能发生的沉浸式互动体验的类型。
