Thanks to six participants for interview and easy accessibilities of major furniture stores, I was able to identify that customers do need the in-store experience as well as online to purchase furniture. To empathize deeper, I spent some time to observe how people would interact with furnitures, families/friends, and customer service team at Williams Sonoma, West Elm, Rafael Interiors, Homenature, and Crate & Barrel. Additionally, I observed the categorization, product information, selection, successful in-store design patterns. This allows me to deeply understand customers’ behaviors in store shopping for furnitures, furniture arrangement, categorization, inspiration and how the store shopping would shape the rest of shopping journey.
