Ferrari’s new London store showcases some seriously amazing retail design from Massimo Iosa Ghini. Aside from the obvioius – its bright – each area of the store features a slightly different look to delineate the categories. The design features include transparent glass floors, lacquered finish to the walls and a rather amazing led style curtain.

Most people believe they are making independent decisions. In reality, they are responding to systems they cannot see. From algorithms to economic structures to social norms, the real driver of behaviour is rarely the individual—it’s the environment shaping what feels possible, reasonable, or true.
Most environments are designed to stimulate. The most effective ones do the opposite. Calm doesn’t slow decisions—it improves them.
Some environments push behaviour. Others remove the need to push at all. The difference lies in how friction is designed—or eliminated.
Aldi doesn’t just sell groceries differently—it changes how people think, choose, and move. This is what happens when you design for constraint instead of abundance.
