This past week, I’ve finalizing new versions of website page
designs for Pop Shop. After doing a lot of research of existing companies, and
seeing their “About” and “How It Works” pages, I think I have narrowed it down
to one streamlined design. It has been really fun being able to have a lot of
freedom doing graphic design for Pop Shop, especially because it is enhancing
my Photoshop skills.
I am a graduating senior, in exactly one month (eek!) and
can’t believe how the time has flown by! Its really hard to think that when I
first came to Drexel, that I would be graduating with two internships under my
belt, a job at a luxury store, and have been able to learn skills like Adobe
Creative Suite and apply them to many projects in and outside of class. All of
my experiences have pushed me to be better in the design & merchandising
field. When I first came on board to help Pop Shop, a start-up company started
by two very smart entrepreneurs at the Wharton School of Business at the
University of Pennsylvania, my role was the visual merchandising intern. But
this internship has been so much more than that. I’ve been able to help at a
trunk show event, network with boutique owners, and learn about the exciting
development of pop-up displays. Technology is a driving force behind the
changing retail shopping experience. More and more retailers and stores are
selling online to compete with e-commerce sites. I found a great graphic this
week when researching pop-up shops that I would like to share. Pop Shop is
using tablets to complete in-store purchases of online-only brands. I hope it
interests readers of the blog.
Congratulations to Allison and Shannon of Pop Shop. They
have worked very hard getting their MBA's, while building Pop Shop.
