New shopping experiences: store, showroom & boutique design by balbek bureau

balbek bureau specializes in creating design solutions for retail spaces such as stores and boutiques. We develop interiors that help brands stand out and attract more customers. From street-style brand store designs to high-end boutique designs, our projects combine aesthetics and functionality. 

For each project, we consider the specific products being sold, target audience, and the desired brand experience. With a design from balbek bureau, your location will become more than just a place to shop – it will be a space where every detail contributes to creating an emotional connection with customers.

Adaptive Design

The adaptive reuse principle practiced by our studio also applies to store design in our portfolio. We strive to seamlessly integrate retail spaces located in historic buildings or districts with the local visual code. For example, in the Kyiv space we designed for the brand Syndicate Original, the original materials of the old building on Reitarska Street were combined with modern elements in the store’s interior.

Innovations for a New Experience

The clothing store design sector is undergoing technological transformations with the influence of artificial intelligence. Interactive fitting rooms, AR and VR displays, creative use of lightboxes – all of these elements enhance emotional engagement with customers. Showroom design for the Symbol company in Kyiv became an example of implementing these innovations, offering visitors a shopping experience with a wow factor.

Striking Minimalism

Space’s functional minimalism does not mean a lack of character. For the Milla Nova boutique in Warsaw, our team reimagined the traditional bridal salon format using unconventional materials, contrasting textures, and a creative concept inspired by extraterrestrial landscapes.
