The idea behind the Holiday Design Store was to create a unique way of booking a holiday, breaking with the tradition of paper brochures and sales associates behind a desk, instead creating a connected environment where large, interactive touch screen maps on the wall and a feature table at the entrance sought to entice customers and offer them more than just a holiday.

to appeal to astute devotees.
