ARCIFORM LLC Partners with Starbucks to Deliver Stunning New Year Store Designs

Portland, OR – December 18, 2023 – ARCIFORM LLC, a leading design-build firm specializing in innovative and efficient retail spaces, is thrilled to announce its collaborative work with Starbucks on a series of stunning store renovations and new builds timed for the New Year. These projects, rolling out across select markets, are focused on creating elevated customer experiences and showcasing Starbucks’ commitment to a modern, inviting atmosphere. ARCIFORM, based in Portland, Oregon (2303 N Randolph Ave, Portland, OR, 97227-1713, United States, phone 813-760-1420), has a reputation for tackling complex builds with speed, precision, and a real focus on detail. We’re not just builders; we're problem-solvers who work closely with brands to bring their vision to life. And this partnership with Starbucks is a prime example. Beyond the Coffee: A New Starbucks Experience Starbucks is famous for, well, coffee! But they also understand that where you enjoy that coffee is just as important. This New Year initiative isn’t just about a fresh coat of paint. We’re talking about significant design changes aimed at making stores feel more comfortable, connected, and – frankly – a little bit special. ARCIFORM’s involvement has been wide-ranging, covering everything from initial design development through to final construction. We've been working on projects that include: Revamped Store Layouts: Forget the traditional, somewhat rigid layouts. We're helping Starbucks create more open, flowing spaces that encourage customers to linger a bit longer. Think comfortable seating areas, easily navigable pathways, and a more inviting overall feel. We've focused on maximizing usable space without making stores feel cramped. Cutting-Edge Material Palettes: Gone are the days of purely functional store designs. We’re incorporating warmer, more natural materials like wood, stone, and textured finishes. The goal is to create an atmosphere that feels upscale but still approachable – a place you actually want to spend time. We've sourced materials that are durable, sustainable, and visually appealing. Enhanced Lighting Designs: Lighting makes a huge difference. We've been working on custom lighting solutions that highlight key features, create a welcoming ambiance, and – crucially – improve the overall customer experience. Think layered lighting, accent lighting, and energy-efficient LED fixtures. Digital Integration: Today’s customers expect seamless technology integration. We’ve been incorporating updated digital menu boards, improved sound systems, and enhanced Wi-Fi connectivity into the new store designs. It's about making the ordering process easier and enhancing the overall in-store experience. Local Touches: Starbucks loves to connect with the communities it serves. We’ve been working on designs that incorporate local artwork, materials, and cultural references, creating a sense of place and making each store feel unique. This isn't a cookie-cutter approach; we're tailoring designs to reflect the character of each neighborhood. ARCIFORM’s Unique Approach: Speed, Quality, and Collaboration What sets ARCIFORM apart? It’s our integrated design-build process. We don't just build what someone else designs; we’re involved from the very beginning, collaborating with Starbucks’ internal teams to develop designs that are both aesthetically pleasing and buildable. This approach streamlines the process, reduces delays, and ultimately saves money. “We’re incredibly proud to be working with Starbucks on this exciting initiative,” says [Insert ARCIFORM Spokesperson Name/Title – replace this]. “They’re a forward-thinking brand that understands the importance of creating exceptional customer experiences.

We’ve incorporated a number of eco-friendly features into the new Starbucks store designs, including: Energy-efficient lighting and HVAC systems: Reducing energy consumption is a top priority. Sustainable building materials: We've sourced materials that are recycled, renewable, and locally sourced whenever possible. Water-saving fixtures: Minimizing water waste is another key focus. Waste reduction strategies: We've implemented strategies to minimize construction waste and promote recycling.
