SCOPE
Retail and workshop fit out
APPROACH
Circular design and reuse
Yodomo needed a space that could switch between retail and workshop use without a fixed layout for total flexibility.
The design gives them exactly that: everything moves, everything can be reconfigured and the environment works equally well for a customer browsing textile remnants and a group of participants in a making workshop.
Equally important was doing this without buying new. The budget was tight and the values were clear: everything reused where possible, nothing wasted. The result reflects what Yodomo stands for, which is the best kind of brief to work with.

SCOPE
Retail fit-out
APPROACH
Branding and sustainable materials
Product is king, especially in kids retail, so I used bright coloured shelving and interesting shapes to enhance the ultra-clean Scandi-style palette at Ryker Kids clothing store.
It was a cost-effective and sustainable way to make the merchandise pop, and to make the space welcoming and interesting to kids, without undoing the minimal aesthetic.
Subtle playful elements were introduced throughout to complete this effect, including rubber flooring with road markings and yellow bungee cord resembling a child’s drawing of a roof. The result was a simple fun way to show off style and individuality – just like the Ryker Kids range.
CLIENT TESTIMONIAL
"Rachel perfectly captured our vision for Ryker Kids — creating a clean Scandinavian-inspired space that still felt playful and engaging for children.
Bright shelving, fun shapes, and subtle details made the merchandise stand out while maintaining a minimal aesthetic. The result is a stylish, welcoming store that truly reflects the Ryker Kids brand."
