Retail Design

Custom displays and work stations to increase productivity and sales.

Western motif for dual station checkout: illuminated merchandise display in front, wildlife inset is backlit with bronze tinted glass, poly octagon shape funnels the crowds, clerks can efficiently work a full shift standing or sitting.

Illuminated wildlife valance for increased retail sales.

Radius counter and bumpers keep people and carts flowing.

Based upon Deli Express’s trademark slogan “Heat and Eat Station”, I playfully designed these self-service kiosks. All aboard!

Weathered barnwood: illuminated glass jewelry counter with mirrored doors.

Well joined for sturdy, delicate elegance.

Rods, reels, flies, lines and back stock, all in a tidy footprint. I designed/built 12 units with six different motifs. Each best reflecting the personality of the historic Hamilton stores in Yellowstone Park.

32’ Mahogany Bar c. 19th century: shipped via clipper ship from England round the “horn”, to San Francisco, then onto Butte, Montana, then Death Valley and finally into Yellowstone. After decades in storage I was hired to reconstruct and rebuild, but with no photos, no drawings and no clue, yet many missing pieces, panels and embellishments, this project amounted to a massive and complex blind jigsaw puzzle. I left the dated graffiti and more than one bullet hole, but toned them down on the 2 matching 16’ mahogany bar slabs.

Alex, what a fantastic job you did as always. – TSP

Dear Alex…just super! All the board members are impressed with all you’ve done. - EHP
