Our Solution

 

Texture, lighting, and warm tones were combined to visually create a hand-crafted, coffee centric experience and elevate consumer’s expectations of what they’ll find at a traditional forecourt shop. The barista-based service offer is highlighted by a reclaimed wood counter with a glass-enclosed food display, back wall coffee display with digital menus showcasing appetizing coffee impressions while providing specific details on menu offerings.

 

Our Solution

 

A new ampm design that elevates the overall brand experience by signaling, from the outside, the key differences found on the inside and creating a singular entry portal to help unify a divers retail portfolio. The interior design incorporates a wood trellis that “frames” and features the expanded food offering while dark wall tile helps to project a high quality and professional “foodvenience” experience. Layout was redeveloped bringing food and beverage to the forefront and to reinforce customer perceptions of ampm being the store of choice for meeting the daily needs of its mobile customers.

Our Solution

 

Inspired by the region’s rich heritage, and beautiful geography, BDL Partners brought to life the concept of sand dunes and the waves of the sea forming an oasis of great food and beverages. Dynamic ceiling treatment that highlights and features the new fresh food offers while creating a separate beverage island where barista coffee is combined with local tea offers and made to order Turkish coffee. We created an experience that was unique, memorable, and instantly recognizable so that regardless of store size or location the Oasis experience would be consistent.

Faced with new regional competitors along with an influx of international oil companies, Oxxo Gas was looking to establish themselves as the preeminent leader in forecourt retail. The design leveraged and reinterpreted the visual assets of the Oxxo corporate brand through a dynamic red LED lit canopy, unique yellow banding and ‘energy’ icon that presents Oxxo Gas as being modern, innovative and in keeping with consumer expectations.

Our Solution

We developed an architectural “kit-of-parts” to assist Nouria with the rebranding and updating of their diverse portfolio of stores. The design highlighted the companies new logo and provided an open look into the store interior. The exterior design created a modern update to the companies legacy network while establishing Nouria as a unified branded chain.

Our Solution

Shell’s acquisition of 172 Timewise c-stores in Texas marks the company’s first significant entry into the U.S. market & its first operation of company-owned stores in 19 years.

We played a pivotal role in helping Shell evolve and modernize the design and aesthetic of the existing Timewise locations. Our efforts included streamlining the façade of the convenience stores to align with a more contemporary look, enhancing the existing rollover car wash facilities, and updating the retail interiors to create a warmer, elevated food and beverage experience.
