The Design Retail Space blog has emerged originally as a part of Gosia’s personal portfolio of gathering articles she wrote during her studies and for her college thesis.

The blog is evolving spontaneously as a learning experience and inspirational diary.

The aim is to present the spectrum of retail interior design projects and visual merchandising; from luxury brands through high street to local retail in a way that would engage the site’s audience.

Each project is being presented to share great design and ingenious ideas, regardless of their budget. The website is also a platform to analyse the branding strategies of specific brands and how they shape the design of the interior and visual identity.
