The way we do it for you

Miller Studios is a collective of seriously talented designers and craftspeople supported by the latest innovative technology. Helping to create successful New Zealand businesses involves building brands, which all starts with design.

Main retailers suffer from lack of a strong identity or have created confused images in the minds of their customers. Successful retailers develop strong brands by starting with a clearly defined personality and powerful design.

We have our own in-house retail design studio, 'Designability' with experienced award winning designers. they will provide the creative edge your business needs and an environment that projects a unique image, looks great and sells your product.

We compliment our outstanding design service, with professional project management and, in our factories we offer hand-crafted joinery, architectural engineering, plastic fabrication, neon blowing, digital graphics, 3d lettering, paint finishing and powder coating, sophisticated lighting and signage (including the latest in high tech printing and LCD technology.

Our design and outfit process is as follows:

  1. Client briefing - we discuss your business goals and ambitions. this includes the budget available to meet your vision.
  2. Site survey - we measure areas and note site considerations.
  3. Concept - we develop concept drawings showing a floor plan and artist impression of your new store. This gives a 'feel' for the space usage and 3D portrayal of your project.
  4. Adjustments - at this point we make any adjustments necessary to progress the project.
  5. Factory drawings - we create final drawings to show how the joinery is built and how the site is converted to the new image.
  6. Quotation - once factory drawings are complete, we produce a comprehensive quotation and present a contract.
  7. Fitout - our team of professionals fitout your space to turn your vision into reality.
