Retail Intercepts
O B J E C T I V E
GM was evaluating the redesign of its showcase showroom in the GM building on Fifth Avenue in New York. It needed a sense of how people perceived the showroom and their expectations of what such a place should be.
E X E C U T I O N
We did intercept interviews with people at a number of experiential retailing sites like Niketown, Sony Store, Coke's store, and Warner Brothers Store as well as at the Fifth Ave. showroom itself. These interviews were woven into a 30-minute video about GM itself, consumer expectations for a flagship showroom, experiential retailing and its impact on corporate branding.

GM used this insight with its designers to add features to the Fifth Avenue showroom as well as to its Epcot center pavilion.
