Now in its 23rd consecutive year, VMSD’s annual Retail Design Firm Resource Guide showcases a comprehensive listing of contract design firms and independent designers, as well as architecture and construction firms, from around the world – including those in South America, Poland, India and beyond.
Each listing – unless non-disclosed – lists every firm’s notable projects from 2016, as well as current contact information. (See the full listing in the magazine here.)
For the Rankings by Design Firm Fees table, derived from total retail design firm fees disclosed by participating firms, see below. All information in the guide, including fees (where applicable), was provided by individual firms and has not been independently verified by VMSD magazine.
Design firms interested in participating in the 2018 Resource Guide should contact Managing Editor Carly Hagedon at carly.hagedon@stmediagroup.com for details.
