MATERIAL AS IDENTITY

Material articulates identity.


Consistent surfaces and crafted detailing translate brand and context into a coherent whole.
A precise material language — defining character, recognition, and continuity.

MATERIAL AS ATMOSPHERE

Material shapes the atmosphere.


Warm tones, tactile surfaces, and calibrated contrasts create depth and sensory experience.

A spatial quality that is perceived intuitively — clear, composed, and grounded.

MATERIAL AS FRAMEWORK

Material defines the spatial structure.


Continuous surfaces and controlled transitions structure the space into clear, legible sequences.

Reduced in expression, precise in ex*****on — material becomes the architectural framework.

As part of the transformation of working environments, MACH developed—together with Swisscom—a cohesive reception concept implemented across corporate locations throughout Switzerland.

In Zurich, the design is precisely embedded within an existing architecture, reinforcing its spatial identity.

At the P51 site, the 370 m² reception hall is defined by an existing counter beneath a double-flight staircase, complemented by greened seating elements that create intuitive spaces for waiting and informal stay.

At P51, an existing counter beneath a double-flight staircase defines the reception hall. The complex geometry is clarified and translated into a calm, representative spatial composition.

A precise interplay of color, integrated lighting, and a new wooden handrail accentuates the staircase — forming a clear spatial gesture that guides movement, provides orientation, and makes the brand subtly perceptible in everyday use.

A vertically articulated backdrop defines the reception and establishes a clear spatial framework.

Warm, natural materials create an inviting, high-quality sense of arrival.

Inspired by sound waves as a spatial expression of communication, a dynamic feature wall unfolds in layered timber lamellas — forming a distinctive, multi-dimensional brand element.

From Concept to Experience.

Building on the findings of our in-depth analysis, these case studies show how strategic insights can be translated into spatial experience.

With years of experience, MACH has built a portfolio of retail concepts that manifest a brand’s mission statement and enable an immersion into the world of a brand and its products.

Vom Konzept zum Erlebnis. Aufbauend auf den Erkenntnissen unserer vertieften Analyse zeigen diese Fallstudien, wie sich Strategie in räumliche Erlebnisse übersetzen lässt.

Mit langjähriger Erfahrung hat MACH ein Portfolio an Retail-Konzepten entwickelt, die das Leitbild einer Marke räumlich manifestieren und ein Eintauchen in die Welt der Marke und ihrer Produkte ermöglichen.

Uncovering retail potential through careful analysis.

In our potential analysis we explore customer journeys, atmosphere, materiality and spatial coherence in order to develop strategies that translate brand identity into physical space and scalable retail concepts.

________

Retail-Potenziale durch sorgfältige Analyse sichtbar machen.

In unseren Retail-Potenzialanalyse untersuchen wir Kundenführung, Atmosphäre, Materialität und räumliche Kohärenz, und entwickeln Strategien, die Markenidentität in räumliche Erlebnisse und skalierbare Retail-Konzepte übersetzen.

Retail Spaces. Or brand experiences?

Great retail is not just about selling a product. It’s about creating brand experience. Through careful curation of flow, atmosphere and detail, retail spaces transform into immersive journeys that emotionally connect people to a brand.

With our retail potential analyses, we translate brand identity into spatial experience, shaping the customer journey, atmosphere, materiality and detailing into one coherent whole. Furthermore, we consider how concepts extend beyond a single space into scalable rollouts with a coherent brand expression.

Retail Spaces. Or brand experiences?

Guter Retail geht nicht nur darum, ein Produkt zu verkaufen, sondern darum, Markenerlebnisse zu schaffen. Durch die sorgfältige Kuratierung von Fluss, Atmosphäre und Detail werden Retail Räume zu immersiven Reisen, die Menschen emotional mit einer Marke verbinden.

Mit unseren Retail-Potenzialanalysen übersetzen wir Markenidentität in räumliche Erfahrung und gestalten Kundenführung, Atmosphäre, Materialität und Detail zu einem stimmigen Ganzen. Darüber hinaus betrachten wir, wie sich Konzepte über einen einzelnen Raum hinaus zu skalierbaren Rollouts mit einem konsistenten Markenauftritt erweitern lassen.

We are delighted to share the exhibition booth of Swiss watch manufacturer , designed in close collaboration with the brand’s creative team for Watches & Wonders Geneva 2026.

For this year’s edition, Roger Dubuis presented an immersive booth concept inspired by “Movements of the Sky”, translating celestial observation and astronomical rhythms into a bold spatial experience.

Structured as a continuous walk-in installation, concentric orbits choreographed a fluid journey through the collections.

The scenography transformed the booth into both exhibition space and narrative environment, inviting visitors to experience time as a force shaped by movement, rhythm, and imagination.

We would like to thank for the inspiring collaboration and for the trust that made this project possible.
