</link><description><![CDATA[ <b>WHAT’S IN STORE – VISUAL MERCHANDISING </b><br /><br />Merchandising solutions: Lifestyle merchandising <br /><br />By Amanda Carr WGSN 28.01.08<br /><br />As retailers hear gloomy predictions about poor sales for 2008 and the end of fast fashion, Pompei A.D. in New York has some merchandising ideas to help engage consumers in a more relationship-based purchasing process.<br /><br />Pompei A.D. is the creative service company responsible for designing stores for Anthropologie and Urban Outfitters, where <b>lifestyle merchandising</b> is the focus of store layout. <br /><br />Creative director Ron Pompei is clear that cultivating a more meaningful relationship with consumers results in <b>better sales and more loyal customers</b>. Pompei's buzzwords are <b>commerce, culture and community</b>, and he tells WGSN: "You have to have the commerce, it has to be culturally welded and that will bring community." ]]>

<title>The New World of Coca-Cola
</title><link>http://www.pompeiad.com/articles/5_232
</link><description><![CDATA[ Atlanta, GA, May 24th 2007<br /><br />May 24th marked another milestone in Pompei A.D.'s collaboration with <a href="http://www.coca-cola.com/template1/index.jsp?locale=en_US" target="blank">The Coca-Cola Company</a>, as the <a href="http://www.newworldofcoca-cola.com/" target="blank"> New World of Coca-Cola </a>opened in Atlanta.<br /><br />I am especially proud of the work that we have done to create a new global concept for their retail stores. Our collaboration with Coke's Retail team and the design team for the New World of Coca-Cola has been an extremely invigorating process. I've been pleasantly surprised at how intensely focused on design the brand team has been, and I believe that the retail store reflects our mutual commitment to making interesting and relevant things happen within the culture. Check out the new stuff they're selling <a href="http://www.coca-colastore.com/coke/" target="blank">here</a>.<br /><br />I am thankful that I've had the opportunity to work on this project, and I am looking forward to seeing how this new store concept is received by the public, as press is starting to come out <a href="http://www.ddimagazine.com/displayanddesignideas/content_display/industry-news/e3if2917b9c12561b9e1ab8ef925885f983" target="blank">here</a> and <a href="http://www.wwd.com/notavailable/dotcom?target=/issue/article/116204&amp;articleId=116204&amp;articleType=A&amp;industryKw=issue&amp;industryKw2=issuearticle" target="blank">here</a>.<br /><br />I can't wait to get to Atlanta to experience the fully realized store in operation. ]]>
