After a long relaxing restful fall break and 5 weeks left till the end of the semester, we were given our final project. We are developing an individual retail shop in either The Shops at Buffalo Bridge or BioMech Mills. Since i am familiar with the Buffalo Bridge project, i wanted to continue to develop this space. Keeping in mind, branding, window displays, target audience and products themselves, as well as my interests, i found it difficult to decide what i wanted to design. Thinking of things i love in general and to shop for were...pocketbooks, jewelry, food, shoes, clothes, smelly good stuff, etc. But i didn't want to do something ordinary, i wanted something that would attract customers from across the city. That led me to the idea of having a dog boutique.

This would be a place that would sell everyday items for dogs such as...collars & leashes, beds, toys, treats, some apparel & carriers. I would like to have a doggie bakery that serves treats for dogs but looks as if human could eat them as well. Thinking that the bakery may take over the store more than the products themselves

I look forward to seeing where you go with this product. It might be interesting to design it from two perspectives...that of the dog and that of their owner. Feel free to move forward.
