Lindt Retail Island at Zurich Airport: A Refined Chocolate Experience
At Zurich Airport, Lindt’s Retail Island has undergone a complete redesign and rebuild to create a more inviting and accessible shopping environment. The new layout significantly enlarges the space, extending the shop towards the back, ensuring a more spacious and fluid experience for customers.
One of the key elements of the new concept is the reorientation of the main counter. Rather than being centrally located, the counter has been decentered, shifting to one side of the shop. This strategic move improves customer circulation, allowing visitors to move freely and engage with the products more comfortably. By creating an open, inviting flow, the space encourages exploration and enhances the overall shopping experience.
The design draws direct inspiration from the Home of Chocolate museum in Zurich, bringing elements of elegance and sophistication while staying rooted in Lindt's iconic chocolate heritage. The material palette features a harmonious combination of copper and white stone, which echo the refined aesthetic of the museum. This is complemented by the addition of bronze metal cladding on the retail island, which enhances the space's luxury feel and sophistication while remaining grounded in the warm, chocolate-brown tones synonymous with Lindt’s branding.
Further enhancing the experience, the retail island incorporates digital content that showcases Lindt’s rich history and the craft behind their chocolates. A focal point of the design is the chocolate fountain display, inspired by the museum’s immersive experiences. This interactive feature allows customers to indulge in the visual spectacle of flowing chocolate, tying together the brand's sensory experiences of sight, smell, and taste.
Overall, the redesign of the Lindt Retail Island at Zurich Airport transforms the space into a sophisticated, interactive, and immersive destination for chocolate lovers, inviting them to experience Lindt’s heritage and craftsmanship in a whole new way.
