About

Jonathan Lander believes in the power of retail. Despite the cries that brick and mortar is going away the process of buying will always require places that bring brands to life. Jonathan has led the charge to define the brick and mortar retail experience in the apparel, footwear and technology sectors with an experiential approach encompassing environment, digital and graphic languages.

As retail evolves so does Jonathan. Having overseen new retail directions for Rockport, Nordstrom , Nike and AT&T he expanded his approach to include deeper forms of technology with augmented and virtual reality. Through traditional retail design and visual merchandising and presentation, digital technologies as well as social media Jonathan embraces a truly holistic approach to retail.
