Celebrating a Successful Collaboration with Todd Snyder: Crafting a Vision into Reality

Category: News | Retail

At Showbest Fixture Corporation, we pride ourselves on our ability to transform ideas into tangible, high-quality fixtures that reflect the creativity and vision of our clients. Our recent partnership with the Todd Snyder team is a shining example of this. Together, we brought to life a brand-new retail concept that blends craftsmanship, precision, and efficiency.

From Vision to Reality in Just Six Weeks

This ambitious project began with Todd Snyder’s 3D SketchUp models, which our engineering team converted into a full-fledged millwork and fixture package. This included wall paneling, shelving, racks, tables, and a cash wrap—all designed, fabricated, and delivered within a remarkably short six-week timeline.

The design aesthetic called for a natural and cohesive look. We achieved this by using maple veneer finished with Rubio Pure Wood Oil, which highlighted the wood’s organic beauty. The steel elements—hot-rolled and black iron with a matte clear finish—perfectly complemented the warm tones of the wood.

Tackling Challenges with Innovation

The space presented its own set of challenges, as it was located in an old building with uneven conditions. We relied on a 3D scan of the site to size the millwork precisely, ensuring a flawless fit without needing field measurements or site visits. This technology allowed us to streamline the process and maintain cost efficiency, even under tight deadlines.

Our engineering project manager, Justin, played a pivotal role in this process, converting Todd Snyder’s renderings into actionable designs. The production team then executed the build in less than two weeks, applying meticulous attention to detail and learning innovative techniques, such as working with custom handmade wallpaper for upper soffits.

Custom Details for a Bespoke Experience

The store’s interior is a testament to the collaboration and creativity of both teams. Highlights include:

  • Wall Paneling and Fixtures: Custom designs that fit seamlessly into the space, including a cladded back wall with antique mirrors coordinated to align perfectly with a clothing rack from another supplier.
  • Unique Materials: White oak with a custom stain selected by the Todd Snyder team, ensuring the store embodied their brand’s aesthetic.
  • Handmade Wallpaper: A bespoke touch for the upper perimeter, requiring precise planning and installation techniques to achieve a flawless finish.
  • Storefront Adaptations: Furring and building out around the storefront windows to achieve the desired look, despite the building’s challenging conditions.

Collaboration at Its Best

Working closely with Todd Snyder’s design and construction teams, we developed samples, refined finishes, and overcame logistical hurdles, such as transporting the finished fixtures over six days to the site. The smooth installation, achieved without prior site visits, reflects the meticulous planning and coordination of all parties involved.

Bringing a Vision to Life

This project underscores Showbest Fixture Corporation’s commitment to excellence in design, fabrication, and execution. By championing the client’s vision and delivering high-quality results on a fast-paced schedule, we helped create a retail space that embodies Todd Snyder’s unique style and brand identity.

We look forward to future collaborations and continuing to turn creative concepts into stunning realities.
