Guided by the original essence of this well-loved brand, such as the iconic Candylicious tree and plane, the new experience is designed to activate the senses like never before.<\/p>\n<p>At the heart of the modernized design lies a sweet new Candy City, featuring 3D design, inspired by many sweet moments of Dubai itself. Populated by a series of new Candylicious characters, the Candy City offers a delightful new destination sure to bring smiles to residents and visitors alike.<\/p>\n<p>Adventurous wall art,\u00a0<strong>commissioned from local Dubai resident artist Myneandyours<\/strong>, is modern, playful and bold. Featuring a continuation of the Candy City, it grows to become a Candy-inspired land. The characters are further brought to life through the use of\u00a0<strong>digital technology<\/strong>\u00a0with an interactive version where guests play a character from the city and catch candies from the tree through a motion sensor game,\u00a0<strong>Candylicious Play.<\/strong>\u00a0Introduction of new\u00a0<strong>immersive experiences, expressive in-store content<\/strong>and a\u00a0<strong>personalized gift bar<\/strong>\u00a0takes the new stores to the next level of experience.<\/p>\n<p>From a\u00a0<strong>design perspective<\/strong>, the team at\u00a0<strong><u>H2R Design<\/u><\/strong>\u00a0brought modernity and freshness to the concept &#8211; making it an imaginative retail experience. Defined as\u00a0<strong>Candylicious 2.0,<\/strong>\u00a0the design celebrates contrasts of dynamism and childlike playfulness, excitement and charm. A key pillar of the design and new brand identity was that it should, whilst becoming a modern engaging experience, stay true to the original brand. This allowed the team to develop a charming blend of features within each unique area of the store.<\/p>\n<p>Functional spaces have grown to become sculptural Candy City inspired installations, creating out of the ordinary excitement and visual elements inspired by youthful wonder. Playing with the brand&#8217;s vibrant color palette and clean shapes to ornament the overall space, has led to the creation of a colourful, strong and elaborate interior space that lends itself to exploration and experimentation providing a fun, dynamic and playful retail experience.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-13584\" src=\"http:\/\/blog.dubaicityguide.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/DSC_0403-684x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"684\" height=\"1024\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.dubaicityguide.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/DSC_0403-684x1024.jpg 684w, https:\/\/blog.dubaicityguide.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/DSC_0403-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/blog.dubaicityguide.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/DSC_0403-768x1150.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blog.dubaicityguide.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/DSC_0403-732x1097.jpg 732w, https:\/\/blog.dubaicityguide.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/DSC_0403-1140x1708.jpg 1140w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 684px) 100vw, 684px\" \/> <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-13585\" src=\"http:\/\/blog.dubaicityguide.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/DSC_0401-684x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"684\" height=\"1024\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.dubaicityguide.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/DSC_0401-684x1024.jpg 684w, https:\/\/blog.dubaicityguide.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/DSC_0401-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/blog.dubaicityguide.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/DSC_0401-768x1150.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blog.dubaicityguide.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/DSC_0401-732x1096.jpg 732w, https:\/\/blog.dubaicityguide.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/DSC_0401-1140x1707.jpg 1140w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 684px) 100vw, 684px\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Candylicious,\u00a0an Emirati homegrown concept and a world-renowned candy haven, truly bringing out the child in everyone, has opened two new stores in the world&#8217;s busiest global hubs &#8211;\u00a0Dubai International Airport, Terminal 3\u00a0and\u00a0At The Top Burj Khalifa.
