Our Store Design Focus

Our design specialists can create inspiring interiors to meet the specific requirements of your company while emphasising the functionality of your space.
Our Store Design Goals
To partner with both national and international clients to create striking, dynamic and highly functional commercial spaces.
The Process of Our Retail Store Designs
The Ramvek design team has the capability to establish your brand's reputation and set it apart from the competition. With expertise in all retail, commercial or hospitality projects, our in-house design team will create elegant environments that capture your customer's attention. Our team is adept at understanding a client brief, creating layout options and developing them. We finally bring the project to life through detailed documentation & drawings that will be used for construction.
Project Appreciation
Every space and brand is unique. We begin every project by asking pertinent questions and understanding your specific requirements. At this stage, we begin to analyse such elements as your location, space size, functional requirements, brand identity, budget and timeline. These conversations underpin and ultimately form the foundation of our initial design ideas.
Concept Design
Discovering the right aesthetic for your new space is an intuitive and iterative process. When conceptualising, we test various options until we reach the ideal outcome. During this process, we pair sketching with cutting edge 3D modelling software to create layouts unique to the space we are designing. This process allows our clients to have a complete understanding of their project.
Town Planning
Zoning laws in Australia are unique to each state and occasionally, suburbs. To help make the construction process seamless, we have in-house specialists that can guide you through acquiring the right permissions for your construction. Ramvek helps plan your development strategically by sourcing information, creating reports and assessing your situation on a case by case basis.
Detailed Documentation
This is the phase where we will provide you with all detailed construction documents for pricing and ultimately, construction purposes. Our drawings are complemented by detailed architectural specifications and schedules which clearly outline all design intent and material finishes. Ramvek will also engage any expert subconsultants necessary at this stage to achieve the required outcomes of the brief.
Building Permit
We liaise on your behalf with our partner building surveyors (or yours) to ensure that your new project satisfies the requirements of the National Construction Code (NCC) and any referenced Australian Standards within the NCC. Building Permits are critical as they not only ensure that everything is built to the NCC but also ensure that no unauthorised building works take place.
Construction
This is where Ramvek finally brings your creation to life. Using our in-house project management expertise, Ramvek will deliver your company's vision in a timely manner following our comprehensive construction schedule. You will have a dedicated point of contact that will keep you updated through each and every phase of development. Should you wish to engage your own contractor, we will be happy to collaborate with them to complete the project.
