13. We would rather not claim
that our all-round approach works.
We prefer to give the floor to our clients
and let our projects do the talking.
For example, the opening of
the second flagship store for the American interior
decoration brand Ethan Allen
or the launch of the web shop
designcollectors.com,
which we supported from start to end.

14. Some projects.
Ethan Allen Interiors flagship stores for Europe
The American interior design brand Ethan Allen introduces
affordable luxury in Europe. At the Ethan Allen Design
Center, consumers will find complete design solutions with a
complete personal service – all at affordable prices.
We supported the full development of the first Ethan Allen
Design Centers in Europe: from choosing the right location
down to the festive opening, as well as the development
of a representative trade fair booth.

15. E-commerce Vitradirect/Designcollectors
Webshop Designcollectors
offers a wide selection of products
from the Vitra Home collection
online. Thanks to the largest
stock in Europe and the logistical
experience, most products
can be delivered within
a few days.
We helped to set up
this well-structured webshop
from the concept phase.
