Retail design is commonly associated with monotonous office units set in vast, barn-like spaces lit by subdued fluorescent light. If you roll out Emblema's portfolio of commercial properties, you'll find that the finished projects are anything but boring. They are creative, memorable and multifunctional.
When creating each of its next projects, Emblema wants to develop spaces conducive to mental and physical well-being, regardless of whether the buildings are more employee-oriented or customer-oriented. Both must feel comfortable at work or at rest; to feel calm and in place.
Each of the projects includes common areas, places for relaxation and creative reflection, spaces for large gatherings and those for private meetings.
Another common feature among the built commercial properties is the amount of natural light provided, which is achieved through the combination of high and skylights, glazed railings and massive storefronts. Natural light and warm, pastel colors do not tire the eyes and guarantee a healthy and fulfilling rhythm.
The central mall of the city of Pleven is an excellent example of everything said so far – spacious, well lit, with enough places to rest for customers and excellent conditions for employees. The exterior is playful and casual, setting the mood for something fun and new waiting to be discovered. Elements of the exterior are also seen in the interior, combined with selected vegetation for texture and movement of the space.
Another excellent example from the portfolio of trade facilities is MAXI Trade Center. The overall feel is more stylized and classic. One gets the feeling that important work is being done behind the walls of the shopping center that will leave an imprint on the future. There is also a significant dose of luxury in the classics – in addition to offices, the building houses shops and a variety of entertainment options
Last but not least is the popular Pleven restaurant Kanape Food & Club. Unlike the previous two sites, the atmosphere in one restaurant is radically different – far more heartfelt, intimate and yet shared with complete strangers. Many consumers don't even suspect the huge influence a restaurant's interior has on customers, prompting them to order more or less, stay longer or just for a drink. The interior design of a restaurant is part of its marketing strategy.
