New opening in Milano for Finanza & Futuro Banca retail banking flagship store

A new important challenge for Crea International to give the Deutsche Bank administered funds company an innovative design within retail banking

The Physical-Brand-Design company has conceived and designed the whole restyling plan of Finanza e Futuro Banca.The brief that gave birth to the new innovative concept design was certainly a challenging one: create a brand awareness and make perceivable to clients and prospects the new positioning of the brand through the retail concept. This required the capability to develop a project with a high visibility from the outside, innovating the external approach of the financial services offices and the capability to communicate the new brand soul upon the mix of exclusivity and accessibility. In other words the design concept had to transfer the oxymoron concept of F&F Banca as the private bank managed by financial promoters.The project had to convey the rigorous roots of Deutsche Bank and the dynamism of F&F Banca and generate the feeling of a financial boutique capable to deliver high professionalism together with a strong and warm relationship.

The design concept gets its inspiration from first class financial journey. First class suggests comfort and accurate services approach, cocooning but at the same time an innovative environment with great attention to details. The design innovation of first class is perceived right from the outside of the flagship store: the windows although opened and transparent have been designed with a blue gradient glass and brushed aluminium that provide a touch of glamour. The interior design has privileged simple shapes, materials and colours in contrast, combining the blue and white colors clash, creating a timeless environment, capable to enhance what really matters : the human touch, the relationship based on mutual trust.

Particular attention has been dedicated to the communication of the offer : a colour scheme based on pastel colours developed to identify every single product proposed and introduced in the display system that groups in an unique proposition the various brochures composing the offer and the poster focusing on the special proposal of the moment. This system contributes to give to this innovative concept a touch of simplicity and at the same time preciousness, even in the offer. The whole environment provides an overall feeling of lightness, simplicity and essentiality. A perfect equilibrium to take a break with the external world and make clients concentrate on their future in a peaceful state of mind.

The choice of F&F Banca to open a new flagship store in Milano, following Rome’s one, and to refresh and reshape all the branches through out the country, implementing the innovative design concept of Crea International, is a strong signal not only of the strong increase of the activity of the financial company but even that Finanza e Futuro believes that space is an essential tool in its repositioning strategy to put clients at the centre of its attention, committing in all its activities to top class service where care and profesionalism are the key words for success.

Another fully managed project by the interior design company,that through its exclusive Physical-Brand-Design way of working, successed once again in translating the brand values within the space.

Design Innovation e Concept Innovation per il primo Flagship Store di Finanza & Futuro Banca inaugurato a Roma

Il 26 Novembre 2010 è stato inaugurato a Roma il primo Flagship Store di Finanza & Futuro Banca, progettato dallo studio di Italian Retail Design Crea International, specializzato nella progettazione di retail banking design concept caratterizzati da un alto coefficiente di innovative design.

Gli uffici dei promotori finanziari sono stati realizzati secondo un retail design concept fortemente orientato alla consulenza finanziaria: "Un viaggio finanziario in prima classe", questo innovative design concept sviluppato secondo l'esclusiva metodologia progettuale di Physical Brand Design.

Il concept store prende vita dall'ossimoro progettuale di "Esclusività e Accessibilità", introducendo così un nuovo standard altamente competitivo all'interno del private banking: uffici considerati come punti di riferimento di "Alta Consulenza Finanziaria", indirizzati ad un ampio range di clientela affluent.

Un servizio di "Alta Consulenza Finanziaria" erogato all'interno di un design concept che richiama un terminal di viaggio esclusivo, reso unico da un coefficiente stilistico di rotondità che ambisce a comunicare una forte desiderio di vicinanza nei confronti del cliente.

Altro elemento chiave del retail design concept è linguaggio cromatico all'interno, che è caratterizzato da una morbida scala cromatica che si sviluppa attorno al gradevole contrasto tra il blu e il bianco.

Nell’insieme esso conferisce consapevolmente un immaginario fresco al concept, che mantiene allo stesso tempo alta la percezione e l' identità di un luogo cardine, in cui vengono forniti "Servizi Top Class" per "Clienti Top Class".

L’apertura di questo nuovo importante presidio di rappresentanza si inserisce nel piano di espansione e restyling della rete di F&F Banca, che tra il 2009 e il 2011, prevede l' apertura di nuovi uffici secondo l'implementazione dell'innovative design concept di Crea International e la modernizzazione di altri 100 già esistenti.

All’inaugurazione del design concept di Roma, seguirà quella del Flagship store di Milano, prevista entro la prima metà del 2011.
