Abstract

Besides attracting attention, recognisability is one of the most important aspects for brands to distinguish themselves from competitors. However, there are so many competitors around that it might sound impossible to be recognisable as a brand. So the question is, how can brands become visible between other (screaming) initiatives (advertisements, shops, logos, products etc.) that are developed to attract attention to a store environment? In the authors ’ view, the answer lies in value creation, but the definition of this term can be approached from different perspectives. In this chapter, we will focus on gaining insight in value creation especially from a designer perspective.
