Project Spotlight: Magnetic Shoe Wall

We worked with a large shoe retailer on a project this past year to draw customers in on opposing sides of their stores. The walls feature a combination of smaller lightboxes with much larger ones below and magnetic shelving throughout. Each lightbox was designed to showcase around 30 shoes while providing flexible adjustments to the shelves.

The magnetic brackets were attached to the both sides of the Matrix Frame light boxes so they can be hidden behind the tension fabric graphic. Once the magnets were positioned properly, the silicone edge of the graphics could be tucked into place. The final step was then taking the acrylic shelves and pressing them up on the fabric graphics. The most exciting feature of this design is that the rows of magnetic brackets can be adjusted. Not only can you decide how many shelves sit on each row, but you can also remove them to feature a traditional tension fabric graphic.

We are excited about how the magnetic brackets and shelving turned out and we look forward to incorporating more of them in our light boxes and non-lit frames as we begin 2018.
