Mugler Trolley Refurbishment
All the way back in 2013, Berry Place created eight eye-catching point-of-sale trolleys for Thierry Mugler (Clarins Fragrance Group) for showcasing their fragrance ranges during in-store promotions.
Following the brands recent decision to change from Thierry Mugler to simply ‘Mugler', the fragrance display trolleys have paid a visit back to the workshop for a little well-earned reconditioning.
All the trolleys underwent a full refurbishment including respraying, revised graphics, and replacement of any missing or worn parts, making them good as new for their imminent return to service.

Godiva 90th Anniversary Jigsaw
Celebrating the 90th anniversary of prestigious chocolatier, Godiva, Berry Place worked in partnership with Condiment Junkie to create a totally unique event ticket concept, culminating in a collaborative high-profile jigsaw with 150 pieces.
Each piece of the digitally-printed gold jigsaw ’tickets’ was delivered to the guest in bespoke boxes, unique to each and every shard and sitting atop a foam bed wrapped in 'chocolate’ silk. Guests were requested they bring the piece to the event, held in Brussels – the home of fine chocolate!
On arrival guests placed their numbered invite ‘piece' in the matching position on the magnetic ‘template’ jigsaw, forming a large Oli-B artwork to celebrate the anniversary, convey the collaborative Godiva experience and symbolise the connections that chocolate creates.
At the end of the event, guests were given a real tablet of chocolate that had been decorated live by Belgian acclaimed artist, Oli-B.

Moët Hennessy at Whole Foods
In collaboration with Chic - London, for Moët Hennessy, Berry Place created a semi-permanent premium display for the Whole Foods Market store in Kensington, featuring the prestige collection of cognacs, whiskies and champagnes.
The 4.5m x 2m retail display was installed overnight and features LED backlit niches, solid Oak timber panelling and illuminated branding. The display also incorporates two large LED screens, one with an interactive iPad for viewing product information.
After selecting a fine champagne or spirit from the extensive range on offer, customers have the unique opportunity to personalise their choice in-store with an integrated hot foil-stamping machine – a perfect Christmas present!

Dom Pérignon Collection at Hedonism
Paying homage to the origins of the prestigious Dom Pérignon vintage collection on sale at Hedonism, Mayfair’s exclusive wine store, Berry Place created a unique environment in collaboration with Chic, recognising over fifty years’ history of the renowned champagne.
To convey the atmosphere of the original vaults, the walls and arched ceiling of the venue were decorated with replica slate panelling, and the existing floor concealed beneath a new concrete-effect surface.
Custom built oak cabinets presented the prestigious 1959 vintage, together with ten other rare vintages up to 1996, displayed in illuminated recesses with accented gold leather. A sixty-five inch embedded LED display accompanied the collection, illustrating the distinguished ancestry of the different champagne vintages on offer.
Mark Harvey, marketing manager for Dom Pérignon, said, ‘This really is an exceptional opportunity for Champagne connoisseurs to experience and purchase from this range of rare Dom Pérignon vintages.’ The first collection sold almost immediately at £16,495.
The whole installation was completed by Berry Place overnight in just four days, including the removal of an existing display.

Dior, J’Adore display at Harrods
If you have time on the run up to Christmas, be sure to visit the stunning Dior display in the Hans Crescent windows of Harrods.
Working in close partnership with Gizmo Display, Berry Place created the centre piece of the display, a one metre high rotating Ferris wheel, complete with miniature J’Adore perfume bottle cars. The prop was fabricated from a water-jet cut aluminium framework and animated via a concealed motorised drive assembly geared to produce a sufficiently slow revolution.
The sequentially circulating bottles refract a shimmering golden backdrop projected from an LED multi-screen display, blending physical merchandising elements with digital enhancement and drawing your eyes centre-stage, to a prominent J’Adore factice.
This is a perfect example of how some clients partner with Berry Place to deliver a specific element of a larger campaign. Overseeing these 'hero’ elements aid our clients to efficiently bring together jaw-dropping visual merchandising campaigns with one-of-a-kind display pieces to a constrained timescale.
