We are proud to have created the first Juva dispensary in downtown Redwood City, a project that redefines the cannabis retail experience. Our client's goal was to have a design that would attract individuals who are normally apprehensive about the dispensary scene.
From the outset, Juva’s vision was clear: to focus on health and wellness while embodying a sense of science and style akin to an Apple Store. Transparency was key; the design reflects the company’s commitment to educating customers about their products, from cultivation to production, and their influence on health based on scientific research. This transparency is mirrored in our clean, open design, fostering trust and engagement.
We embraced the challenge of crafting a space that reflects this mission, emphasizing natural light, clean lines, and organic materials. The chosen color palette of white paint, white oak, and concrete establishes a connection with nature, while the art installation celebrates this relationship.
A standout feature is the art cube, with its infinity mirror creating a sense of departure and wonder, reminiscent of a scene from Alice in Wonderland. This striking installation serves as both a focal point and a conversation starter. Initially met with some skepticism, the company’s founder immediately recognized its potential to differentiate Juva from competitors. The installation is designed to evolve, with local artists contributing to future changes, celebrating community connections.
The layout encourages movement through the store. Customers are invited to explore rather than simply find products, reminiscent of a high-end boutique. The round display cases and built-in cubes blend seamlessly into the environment, showcasing Juva’s offerings without overwhelming the senses.
Ultimately, Juva is more than just a place to purchase cannabis; it’s an immersive experience that challenges preconceptions and invites a discerning clientele to embrace the benefits of cannabis in a sophisticated setting. We believe our design not only enhances Juva’s mission but also reflects the future of cannabis retail.
