IQOS Retail Stores

Sculpting the Future of Retail Innovation

In my tenure with the groundbreaking IQOS retail initiative under Altria's banner, I mastered the art of forging retail environments that are not just spaces but narratives where design meets innovation. My leadership was pivotal in introducing unique retail concepts — from standalone boutiques to versatile mobile pop-ups — in strategic locales like Virginia and Atlanta.

Crafting Spaces that Narrate Stories

My approach was to create more than stores; I aimed to sculpt experiences that speak. Through a harmonious blend of consumer-centric design and avant-garde technology, each retail space was an invitation to embark on a journey. My role extended beyond design; it was about storytelling, where each element, from layout to lighting, played a part in narrating the brand's saga.

Collaboration at the Core

The genesis of each store, from its first sketch to the final unveiling, was a testament to teamwork. Working shoulder-to-shoulder with architects, builders, and fabricators, we ensured that every facet of the store — from 3D renderings to material selection — resonated with our brand's ethos. My dedication to the brand's voice and a meticulous adherence to design standards fostered seamless collaborations that brought our collective vision to life.
