FAQs
What types of projects does superPOP take on?
We work with founders and growing brands on retail and hospitality spaces—from first locations to multi-store rollouts.
That can include
pre-lease planning and feasibility
first store design and build-out
concept refreshes
rollout systems and ongoing support
If you’re building a physical brand environment (or planning to), we’re a good fit. Learn more about our services here.
Do you help with multiple locations or rollout projects?
Yes.
We work with growing brands to develop systems that can be adapted across multiple locations—balancing consistency with flexibility for different sites.
Can you work with an existing concept?
Absolutely.
We often help brands evolve or refresh and existing store design—whether that’s improving performance, updating the look, or preparing for expansion.
We also support straightforward rollouts where the prototype is already established and the goal is efficient, repeatable execution across new locations.
How are your services structured?
We offer a mix of structured packages (for first locations and rollout systems) and more flexible, a la carte services or custom bundles depending on what you need.
We’ll recommend the right approach after learning more about your project.
Do you offer smaller or a la carte services?
Yes.
In addition to full-scope projects, we offer targeted services like:
site evaluations
test fits
lease reviews
concept renderings for pitch decks
These are especially helpful early in the process, before you’re ready to commit to a full build-out. Learn more here.
Do you offer both architecture and interior design services?
Yes—we approach every project holistically.
Architecture, interiors, fixtures, and custom details are all developed together so the final space feels cohesive and intentional, not pieced together.
What does a project typically cost?
Costs vary widely depending on location, size, project type, and scope.
Our starting fees are listed on our individual service pages.
As a general range, most retail build-outs fall somewhere between $300,000-$1.5M+. We’re happy to help you understand what’s realistic for your concept and market early in the process.
Do you sign NDAs?
We understand that many concepts are still in development. In most cases, an NDA isn’t necessary for an initial conversation—we’re used to working with early-stage ideas and treat them with care.
If you’d prefer to have one in place, we’re happy to review and sign a mutual NDA before diving deeper.
Where is superPOP based? Do you work outside of California?
We’re based in Corona, California, and work with clients throughout the U.S.
For projects outside of California, we collaborate with local architects and consultants as needed to navigate permitting and construction.
Do you also build the project?
We don’t act as the general contractor.
Instead, we work closely with your builder and consultants throughout the process—helping coordinate, answering questions, and keeping the design intact as it’s built.
When should I bring you into the process?
Earlier than most people expect.
We’re often involved before a lease is signed—helping evaluate spaces, test-fitting layouts, and identifying potential risks or opportunities. That early input can have a meaningful impact on both construction cost and timeline.
What does the process look like?
It typically starts with a conversation.
From there, we move through concept development, design, documentation, and coordination during construction. Depending on your needs, we can also support site selection, prototyping, rollout planning, and ongoing design stewardship.
