Sleek Prototypes | Customer Engagement

How does one elevate the shopper’s experience to which multiple, custom down jacket options are available for purchase within a small footprint? You enlist your bang-up design team to create a compact, interactive and portable kiosk that offers tactile elements designed to enhance the custom ordering process.

Capsule, a Minneapolis-based brand design agency, reached out to Chandler for our expertise in retail fixture design and fabrication. The big ask: produce a fixture design which offers a customized online ordering process, then, build a functioning prototype for in-store testing of this process.

The two prototype kiosks are installed and taking orders at two top outdoor specialty retail locations: Ute Mountaineer in Aspen and Midwest Mountaineering in Minneapolis. If you are in the area, be sure to check out these fun and engaging kiosks.

This project was nominated and won two Shop! 2018 Design Awards: In-Store Communication and Store Fixture. Click here to read more.

A Strong Design with Key Audience In Mind

After a series of sketches, design concepts and 3D renderings, Chandler presented a sturdy yet condensed prototype.

The sleek kiosk design features acrylic tubes, panels and a jacket display shadowbox. It also features metal, millwork, a 42-inch touchscreen monitor and CPU system. The kiosk displays a colorful fabric swatch sample board, glass mirrors and locking cabinets on casters. All kiosk graphics were designed by Capsule.

The More the Merrier: A Variety of Custom Jacket Options

A shout out to all of those who partnered on this project to ensure a swift victory!

Capsule, for their creative “Designed By You, Built For Life” display graphics representing the Hexa Recreation Products brand (whom also dreamed up the kiosk idea); New Normal, who interlaced the partnerships; Earthling, who designed and coded the integrated website appearing on the interface; and, Crash + Sue’s, who created and produced the pre-roll video that draws the customer to the kiosk.

We've been called many things, but Wizard is our favorite

“Chandler was an indispensable partner in our project with Hexa Recreation Products. They consistently went above and beyond, both in their creative thinking and their execution. And on a tight deadline. We’re pretty sure they’re wizards. It’s invaluable to have a creative partner who can execute design ideas into beautiful, tangible pieces. From design to engineering to production, Chandler brings ideas to life.”
