FLIGHT CANNABIS
The design inspiration for this new cannabis retail store is inspired by a subtle west coast aesthetic. The fresh, friendly, natural allure of the region is captured through the use of natural materials, a neutral color palette, live plants and high-quality fixtures and finishes. With a focus on customer service and product education, shoppers feel welcome to interact with staff or browse products on their own at one of the IPad stations integrated at the ends of the central retail displays. For those who know what they are looking for, an express checkout (Priority Boarding) counter allows them to get in and out quickly. Large menu screens above the cash counter display rotating product offerings, current pricing and product information.
The exterior of the store is modern and minimalist with black metal framed glazing, dimensional illuminated signage, and playful stylized cloud graphics in black and white that create visual interest and draw people to the store. The modern aesthetic flows inside with exposed ceilings, concrete floors, geometric millwork details, wood clad feature walls and dark stone counters. Decorative cloud-like pendant lights over the feature retail displays, combined with LED suspended track and ambient lighting, create a space that is bright and playful.
Many cannabis stores feel empty or clinical, therefore our aim was to create a more boutique shopping experience and design a space that is welcoming and exciting while adhering to the evolving government regulations for cannabis sales (obscured visibility into the store, controlled signage & messaging, locked product displays).
