Stand Out For Good. With Altar'd State

Altar’d State has always sought to blend meaningful experiences with elevated shopping. As the brand evolved alongside its customer base, it faced the challenge of retaining its heart-led mission while redefining the in-store experience for a more discerning audience. 

Altar’d State’s mission is to inspire and empower through community and giving. The brand challenged us to reflect this mission in store while evolving with a more sophisticated customer base. They needed to maintain their welcoming, sanctuary-like environment while enhancing personal expression, emotional connection, and sales, all without compromising their core values of kindness, empowerment, and authenticity.
