STORE DESIGN
The Paiva store design also exudes energy through its materials, design, layout and product assortment. The environment is clean without being sterile, and the store gives an inviting and comfortable feel. Light is also a key element in the store design throughout the space. A high level of detail will be maintained throughout the store -- from the layout to the staff.
The Paiva stores will average approximately 4,000 square feet, and the first stores will open this spring beginning in April. This launch will be simultaneous through all channels: stores, web and catalog.
