How to display products

& solutions
The Visual Identity Book for Print/Web is the basis for

preparing the new guidelines for displaying products
and solutions.
To achieve visual identity there should be no conflict
between these areas.
The VI Book for displaying products and solutions
establishes guidelines on how future areas should be
designed (shops, flagship stores, displays, ).
The VI Book serves both as a planning aid and as a
basis for future areas designs.
It offers solutions which should be implemented as
far as possible in cooperation with a design agency
and/or a local architect.
142
The very core of the brand must be conveyed:

through technology, clarity, customer-focus and
superiority.
Technology
Customer-focus
What interests the customers?
What do they respond to?
What are their wishes/concerns?
How can you help them?
These questions differ from country to country, from
region to region.
An atmosphere in which the customers feel
understood can easily and effectively be created
through quotes and emotional images.
The products are of sophisticated technology and of

high quality. The focus is not just on the display of dry
technical specifications but on how the technology
makes a positive contribution to existing needs.
All equipment must be connected and functioning

properly in order to show the customer the benefits
live, directly and immediately.
Clarity
Superiority
The primary focus is not only on displaying products

but on solutions. This relationship (product <>
solutions) should be presented clearly.
It is important that next to competing products

Daikin products look stronger, more elegant, more
intelligent and more valuable, e.g. in wholesale
dealers or multibrand stores.

Look & Feel

Representation of brand identity
Description of the new
Look & Feel
Daikin wants to be perceived as an international
premium brand and demonstrate market leadership.
The company looks back on a long tradition, has
developed great expertise in its field and is a leader in
innovation.
Daikin's excellent customer service, very good
supply network and convincing solutions must be
emphasised.
Step 1
The first impression should create an association of
clarity.
The Daikin brand is elegantly presented without
being overbearing.
For the atmosphere you want to create the brand
needs to be presented fully in line with the VI-Book
guidelines: white-blue-black and tidy.
The logo is a key element, clearly visible and wellproportioned (preferably slightly smaller rather than
too large).
Step 2
On second glance, or closer up, the customer is
drawn in at different levels.
Desires, visions and solutions are directly addressed
in an atmosphere that is technical and clear, but also
conveys a certain sense of security and closeness.
In addition to quotes and slogans, emotion images
serve to achieve this. Where space allows, situations
should be created that favour pleasant and
comfortable informative and sales discussions (at the
lounge, coffee bar or desk if available).
Ideally, these situations involving working
installations serve as examples of how the products
are used.
Step 3
At the third look, the customer is already directly
at the product and its immediate vicinity, where
relevant details are presented and solutions
demonstrated.

Signboard

Daikin Signboard
Shop facades vary greatly depending on the

properties in which they are located.
In addition to its function as a signpost, the exterior

signboard is key to displaying the Daikin brand in
public. It is often the first point of contact, the one
associated with the brand, and should therefore be of
high quality, properly sized and well placed.
The perfect location of a Daikin shop is on the

ground floor in a highly frequented area.
It is important that the facade is clean and in good
condition so as to leave a good first impression.
A white coloured facade is recommended.
In case of applying a frontal AND a sideward (90

to wall) signboard it is recommended that the
sideward signboard is 60-70% smaller than the frontal
signboard.
The outside space should have room for the

mandatory signboard, and the display windows
must be suited for promoting messages by means of
labelling.
Additional advertising measures, such as pylons, are
welcome.

width e.g. 125cm
Shop with frontal and sideward logo

> sideward logo 60-70% smaller

Implementation
The best implementation of the signboard would be
to illuminate it for creating a better visibility during
day and night. The following rules also apply if you do
not use illumination.
There are two recommended possibilities:
The best implementation of the signboard would
be to use single letters as they appear fresher and of
higher quality.
Single letters
Another possibility would be to use a white box

with pre-assembled (illuminated) single letters.
In case of a coloured facade (e.g. yellow) it is
preferred to use a white box with single letters.
Otherwise you might create brand irritation.

Material
Signboard with additional text
For the (illuminated) single letters it is recommended

to use transparent acrylic glass which is blue/black
laminated from the back.
If you do not use any illumination it is also possible to
use blue/black powder coated metal for the letters.
If you wish to add a text to DAIKIN, the following

rules have to be applied:
Signboard with Text in 1 line
40% of DAIKIN font height
The distances from the outer frame should be exactly

like the distances of the basic signboard box.
Max. area for additionl text/right-aligned
The box sould either be made of white acrylic glass or

white powder coated metal.
Additional text could be placed below the DAIKIN

fontin line with the deepest point of the logo. The
text needs to be right-aligned, beginning from the
edge of the outer N.
DAY VIEWlightbox with single letters/both made of

acrylic glass
Please check the colour of the letters if you use

illumination.
Only use white light colour (4000 K5000 K).
The height of the text font should be 40% of the

DAIKIN font height.
The width of the text is limited to the width of the
DAIKIN font.

If you need more space for text you can add a second

A linear and straight design is preferred.

An indirect lighting on the facade also gives a nice
first impression.
Beach flags, pylons and similar outdoor advertising

elements are welcome.
Ideally the colour of the lamps should be white or

light grey.
The used elements should be of good quality and

always in good condition, as well as in line with the
guidelines of the VI-book, see chapter Advertising.
Like for the outdoor lighting elements, a straight
design is recommended.

The shop in general
Light
Regardless of whether the space already exist or has

just been found, a bright, open and manageable
structure should be created. The focus should be on
the products which must be easily accessible. The
premises must be in good condition, as this reflects
directly on the products.
Good lighting is essential.

In general there are two different types of lighting
elements: technical light and decorative light.
Technical light illuminates the products and creates
brightness in the room.
Decorative light is produced by lamps that
themselves are decorative in nature and thus
serves purely to create atmosphere (for decorative
lightsee chapter Furniture).
Ceilings
The type of ceilings depends on the local AC-systems.
If possible, smooth, white and basic ceilings are
preferable, since they appear fresher and more
modern.
Track lighting system: e.g. Molto Luce/Shopstar, white
It is important to ensure that light and illuminated

areas are also visible from the outside during the day,
as otherwise the shop will appear to be closed.
Walls
Technical light
In general the walls should be white-coloured, in

good condition and tidy.
In accordance with the technical products,

the general light colour should be white
(4000K5000K) and not have the colour of
artificial or warm light.
The wall design is dependent upon several factors:

property (some with their own rules, e.g. multibrand
stores), location (e.g. coffee bar, reception) and
function (doors or windows).
The light is ideally produced by adjustable spots

which can be directly focused on the highlights
(displays, products, quotes, logo, images, ).
The walls located directly around the displays should

be painted in a different colour. This is described in
chapter DisplaysArtwork/colour frame.
Floor
A good and friendly contrast to the cool
white/blue/black is established through the use of
wood-coloured floors.
Parquett floor: e.g. HARO/Plank Oak white
Recessed downlight: e.g. Molto Luce/Only white
PVC: e.g. FORBO/Allura Commercial 0.55mm/w60070
Parquet flooring is preferable, but very easy-to-clean

PVC with the appearance and structure of wood is
also applicable.
The colour of the floor should be pale and natural
(e.g. light coloured oak). It is highly recommended
to use a high-quality product. The quality differs
tremendously between PVC products.

presentation
LayoutOrganisation
(CEILING UNIT)
In order to describe the products, it is recommended

to use displays on which the devices are presented.
These should be organised according to the
following structure:
VERTICAL LAYOUT
The products are the most important elements of the

display areas.
Ideally, they are fully functional and positioned in the
space where they would normally be used (e.g. wall
uniton wall/ceiling unitoverhead, ).
LOGO
Vertical layout
The wall unit is used as an example to explain how

the product should be positioned in general:
It should be mounted on the wall in a height that
allows customers to touch and inspect it, but should
never be put too low so that it can only be seen from
above.
Information material, multimedia hardware and
remotes should also be placed at a useable height.

GRAPHICS / INFOS
A vertical layout governs the position of the logo,

the positioning of the products, the placing of
information brochures and the integration of
multimedia and remotes.
(PEDESTAL)
HORIZONTAL LAYOUT
Horizontal layout
Under no circumstance should a product be shown

WITHOUT the corresponding display (e.g. unpacked
on the floor on its box).
A horizontal layout stipulates the minimum spacing

between the products and requires products to be
thematically arranged in groups.
Intermediate elements and/or colours organise the
various categories.

The minimum distance of displays to the wall

is 10cm.

The only exception is if displays are mounted around

the corner (no gap necessary).

Artwork on displays
Logo
Apart from any sublogo, artwork in shops is limited to

the displays. It follows the principles of the described
perceptual area: the closer you get to the products,
the more detailed and specific information you will
get.
The logo should be used in a targeted manner.

Over-branding should be avoided.
It is recommended to use a smaller number of logos
but in a high quality.
A basic rule is to use only ONE Logo for each product
solution (see drawing).
GRAPHICS OF WALL
& FLOOR HEATING
Quotes
Example of superstructure
Quotes are good, but also need to be carefully

considered and targeted. The principle is similar to
that for the logos:
A maximum of ONE quote in the respective
perceptual field.

Colour frame
Label
To establish a contrast between clean white walls and

the white displays a light grey coloured painted part
behind the displays is recommended > e.g. Daikin
light grey (see chapter Colour world).
The colour of the label has to be adapted to the

selected colour of the display design (Chapter
Displays/ArtworkColour), e.g. Daikin blue.

The grey coloured area above the displays should

be about 30cm.
On the side the grey colour should also be applied
in a distance of 30cm.
Between displays the grey colour is not interrupted.
Superstructures
Superstructures showing complete solutions, such as
a heating system with a heat pump, boiler, underfloor
heating, radiators, sinks, etc., should not contain
any actual elements that do not come from the
companys range of products.

Images are often more meaningful than words

but only if they can get across their intention.
Emotional images should preferably be used on a
large scale and should not be broken up by spatial
constructions.
30
Images/Info graphics
To achieve differentiation e.g. between product

solutions or product categories put a label on the
end of each solution or category.
The name of the solution or category (e.g. Residential
products or Cooling) should be placed on the label.

The relationships and connections between the

individual elements can be resolved by means of
artwork. This avoids undesired positioning arising
from the use of non-company products whose
design may stands for/against something.
If products used are disproportionately large (i.e. solar
cells), then they must either be scaled down or just
used in parts.

Materials
DisplayLettering and quotes
All products are mounted on displays, placed on

pedestals or integrated in ceiling modules.
Lettering and quotes on a white panel:

Apply single letters or elements as stickers with matt
finish.
This is easy to change and the high glossy surface
from the chip boards is a wanted contrast to the foil.
These are used, in addition to accommodating

the products, as the basis for artwork (e.g. quotes,
pictures, labels, etc.) and for other elements such as
folder holders, logos, tablet computers and images.
DisplayLogo
Logo made of acrylic glass
Logos can be set up in two different ways:
Lettering and quotes on a coloured panel:

To achieve a coloured panel with text or graphic
elements, a printed adhesive foil should be attached.
All colour and text is achieved by the print, so that no
further cut-out stickers are needed.
Usage of cover elements for more elegant connection
1. The preferred version is to use coloured acrylic

glass with a thickness of 3mm.
DisplayImages
2. The minimum standard is to use stickers.
The only way to set up images is to use an adhesive

foil matched to the display size.
DisplayBoards
DisplayInstallation
The proposed material for display panels is chipboard

panels with a high glossy finish and matching edge
strip.
For a more elegant appearance it is recommended

to use cover elements for the connection between
electrical or sanitary installations and Daikin devices.
Preferred colours for the cover elements are white
and chrome.
DisplayLabel
Labels can be set up in two different ways:
1. The preferred version is to use acrylic glass with a
thickness of 5mm laminated with an adhesive foil.
2. The minimum standard is to use a chipboard
panel and matching edge strip laminated with an
adhesive foil.
Displayshelves
Chipboard with white high glossy decor
Small Daikin products like e.g. Daikin Air purifiers

need to be attached to the display walls in the
preferred height. Therefore shelves should be directly
attached to the display boards.
The finish of the shelves should be the same as
on the display boards. The mounting construction
should be invisible.
Invisible mounting fittings
The product should fit perfectly onto the space on

the board which on each side should be about 1cm
larger than the product itself.

Wall-mounted or free-standing displays follow the

same construction principles.
They are hung on a steel sub-construction that is
either directly fixed to the wall or to the base (free
standing displays).
The space between the boards and the wall or
between the boards (free standing displays) is meant
for setting up an easy-to-adapt installation.

The size only differs in the depth. It is always as wide

it placed.
It is recommended to produce the pedestal from

chipboard with plastic dcor. The dcor has a
hammered surface with matching robust edges.

There are two types of free-standing racks:

Straight racks
L-shaped racks
The construction and display system for these is the
same as for the wall mounted racks. You can add a
pedestal module if required. By choosing a L-shaped
rack it is also possible to add a ceiling module.
Nevertheless for design reasons it would be
preferable to install ceiling modules only to wall racks.

Beautiful, simple furniture (no design classics, since

they are emotionally charged) can support the
atmosphere of certain areas.
85
The design of the furniture should be high quality

and simple, thus fitting in well with the overall
impression.
The colour specification is: white/grey/black/wood
colour.
160
Other than the faade, the reception is the first point

of contact and therefore substantially responsible for
the first impression.
It should have a simple and straight design and can
be highlighted by a luminous logo.
MULTIMEDIAELEMENT OPTIONAL
Customers should not be looking at the back of a

large PC screen, stacks of documents or personal
items. Closed doors and drawers are recommended
and no open cupboards should be visible.
Flyers and brochures must also have a designated
place.
LOGO
ILLUMINATED

For the upholstery of the furniture it is possible to use

blue fabric, but it is important that it goes well with
the colour of the Daikin logo.

A sense of professionalism, appeal and openness

should be conveyed by the furniture.

Lounge
The design and look of high tables for

communication and multimedia should fit in with the
surrounding area.
Impact of a lounge area
Colours
It provides an abstract living room situation, in

which products may be tested.
It acts as a waiting and information area.
It is recommended to use grey and/or blue colours

for the fabrics.
In case of applying a carpet in a lounge area it is
recommended to use a blue colour for the carpet
and a grey colour for the lounge chairs.
In both cases, it must be suitable for sales discussions.

It is important for it to be actually staged as a lounge.
This includes a carpet, at least 2-3 chairs, a coffee
table and a floor lamp (see Decorative Light).
Bar stool (HAY/AAS32, H 65cm)
The chairs should be chosen so that they allow active

discussions. Over-deep and prominent furniture is
counter-productive.
If no carpet is provided the lounge chairs should be

blue coloured.
Fabric (Kvadrat/Hallingdal 123)
Avoid the use of blue coloured chairs and a blue

coloured carpet at the same time.

If desks are in the showroom, there must be sufficient

shelves and storage spaces.
Beautiful, simple design (no design classics, since they

are emotionally charged) support the atmosphere
of certain areas: a floor lamp in a lounge area, a desk
lamp or a pendant lamp above the reception desk or
a coffee bar.
Do not use open shelving in shop areas.

While the tables and office chairs must of course
follow the specifications of the employee guidelines,
they should also appear light and modern. Desks in
shop areas must not impede access to the displays.
It is recommended to use grey coloured fabric for
chairs and seating.
In comparison to the indirect lighting the colour

temperature of the light should be a warm white
tone:
27003000 Kelvin.
If the furniture is not visible and accessible to

customers (separate rooms), it is possible to use
different products and designs.

Decorative Plants
Plants give a natural feel and convey a friendly
atmosphere and are therefore very welcome in shop
areas.
It is important to use cultivated real plants which are
in a perfect condition.
Plants that are just used as gap fillers tend to be
counter-productive in their effect.
The design of the flower pot should be straight-lined
and preferably white in colour.

Wall logos
It is possible to mount a Daikin logo on walls, e.g.
behind a desk or reception.
Only use single letters for the logo and try to avoid
boxes or plates.
In addition to large, fixed display solutions, some

situations might require the use of easy, quick and
mobile solutions:
Logo not illuminated
The logo can be mounted directly to the wall or at

a distance to install an indirect illumination (LED).
The colour of the light should be the same as for the
technical light (4000 K5000 K).

TV-Screens & Tablets
Video walls & illuminated screens

Video wall
The integration of modern and interactive

presentation and information technology is useful
and desirable.
For larger shops and areas (e.g. Flagship stores) a

video wall is desirable, which will attract customers to
the rear area of the premises.
Large video displays set the scene for the product
solution in emotional terms.
A distinction can be made between various

applications:
TV-Screens
Screens which act purely as players of promotional
and product presentation animations.
TV (Sony/FWL-40W705C)
The video wall should ideally be as large as the

neighbouring displays. A well chosen content of the
video is just as important as the excellent quality of
the hardware.
Large Format Display (NEC/MultiSync X555UNV)
You need: An internet-compliant monitor, which

plays contents of the Daikin Website or Youtube
Channel with an appropriate internet connection.
Good management of the channels is a prerequisite.
Ideally, the screens in the areas should be located in a
way that they can be viewed from inside and outside
the shop.
Illuminted images
Wall holder (Vogels/Thin 205)
The screen should fit to the dimensions of the panel

it is mounted on. The preferable size is 40".
The technical requirements are:
full HD resolution
integrated browser to stream content
built-in WIFI module
integrated Player to play content from USB-sticks in
a loop
The same rules as for video walls (concerning size and

location) can be applied to illuminated screens, i.e.
huge images illuminated from behind.
The preferable system is a aluminium frame with a
Kedernsystem that results in a frameless picture.
LED is the most advanced possibility to illuminate the
images.
Interactive Daikin installation

For large shops, e.g. Flagship stores, exhibition events
and other promotions, interactive installations are
possible which inform the customers in interesting
ways about the advantages of Daikin products and
solutions.
Tablet computer
Multi Frame LED (Best systems/Side light)
A larger monitor which plays matching image

content is controlled via the front end on a tablet
modelled on the Daikin app for controlling the
domestic system.
Interactively programmed tablets which are directly

attached to the displays and/or are available on the
reception desk and in the lounge.
Via an app the customer can obtain detailed
information on site about the products and solutions
on the display as well as other Daikin products which
are not displayed.
The main prerequisites, besides the tablets, are a
good WiFi connection and Daikin apps.

A flagship store is located at a top end/heavy-traffic

location.
The following locations are also recommended:
shopping centres, commercial areas, central locations.

Shop Inside
If you look at the shop's floor plan itself, a simple,
rectangular space is most suitable. Displays can be
located on the wall or in the room as a standalone
solution. A reception desk, lounge or coffee bar can
be placed as required, but should be integrated in
such a way that certain product groups/categories
are not separated.
