Ever wondered how online retailers would look as bricks and mortar stores?
Carl Eden from ecommerce software agency Displaysense has reimagined how Boohoo, Amazon, Etsy, Zavvi, and Ebay would look as physical stores and the designs are intriguing.
High street retailers have given consumers what they’ve wanted for years, but as the digital age has developed, many consumers have relied on online retailers and deliveries to get their shopping done.
So what if your favourite online retailers were actual high street shops? Let’s do a bit of online window shopping.
Eden reimagined Etsy as a Parisian store filled to the rafters with homemade goods with vintage finds because of the retailer’s speciality in selling vintage items.
The store is also decorated with arts and crafts that are all for sale, and a mysterious cat is resting outside to emphasise the Parisian theme.
Boohoo looks like any other Topshop, New Look or Zara store, with a pink neon sign outside and mannequins modelling the latest pieces the store has to offer.
There are also large mirrors around the store and an elegant staircase to lead you to the menswear floor.
Amazon on the other hand, represents a large department store according to Eden, featuring 18 floors and selling everything from computers to gardening equipment.
Amazon’s popularity is evident within this design, as each floor represents a different need as the retailer caters to all consumers.
Meanwhile, Zavvi is reimagined as a mecca for music and gaming lovers.
Consumers can shop here and pick out the latest comics, as well as play retro arcade games and rent out DVDs. The store certainly represents the early 2000s when consumers relied on stores such as Blockbuster to find the latest movies.
