The brief was to create a world class supermarket and food hall fusion, and we were entrusted to redesign every detail of the new store experience.

"Customers are raving about the complete transformation of the space, product assortment and service quality. Especially the neighbours said SSG Dogok is the new must go place in Seoul. They appreciate Emart for creating such a pleasant and premium grocery shopping destination. Thanks to you and your team."

– Jin Hwa Lee, Project Engagement Manager, Emart

"Wow - Looks incredible! (No surprise there). Congratulations to you and the team!"
