THE ART OF RETAILING /

REIMAGINING SHOPPER EXPERIENCE

A transformation program that helped redefine how an entire industry connects with consumers.

The Architecture of Experience

Building clarity in a complex category.

Client
Luxottica North America

Challenge
Shopping for eyewear was a static and transactional experience. Consumers moved through a category built on function, not feeling. Luxottica saw the opportunity to turn retail into something more connected, emotional, and story-driven.

Stores became stories.
Spaces became systems for connection.
Retail became an experience worth remembering.

Approach
The Art of Retailing began as a single concept designed to elevate the optical experience through strategy, education, and design. What started as a pilot evolved into a national program that redefined how people discover and engage with eyewear.

Outcome
Through trade partnerships, live training, and in-store transformation, the program reached thousands of retailers across North America.
