Dezeen Screen: Nike’s global creative director Andy Walker gives us a tour of the new NikeFuel Station at Boxpark in east London in the first of two interviews that Dezeen filmed for the sports brand. Watch the movie »
Sports brand Nike have opened an east London store where shoppers can see themselves reflected on motion-sensitive LED walls.
Named NikeFuel Station, the store is located at Boxpark, a temporary shopping centre made from shipping containers in Shoreditch, in the London borough of Hackney.
Runners visiting the store can learn which shoe styles are best suited to them using a digitized treadmill or read information about other products by interacting with touchscreens.
Diagonal wooden panels on the walls reference the architecture of the first ever Nike store in Portland, Oregon, but are adorned with LCD countdowns instead of the painted digits on the original walls.
The NikeFuel Station will be one of the first stockists of the Nike+ FuelBand, a wristband that tracks your movements and gives you points for being more active – read more about it here.
We’ve also filmed a couple of movies with Nike’s global creative director Andy Walker, who gave us a guided tour of the store – keep your eyes peeled for these on Dezeen Screen in the next few days or see all our stories about Nike here.
Hackney is one of the five host boroughs for this years Olympic Games, as well as home to Dezeen’s offices, so we’re currently celebrating design talent in the area – find out more here.

Nike Opens First Ever NikeFuel Station in London
Introducing The NikeFuel Station & NikeiD Studio at Boxpark, East London
Nike opens the world’s first ever NikeFuel Station – a retail space like no other designed for today’s digitally enabled athlete. Featuring a seamless mix of innovative digital services and physical consumer experiences, the store is set to re-define the retail landscape forever.
The cutting-edge store, which is located on the ground floor at Boxpark, the world’s first ever pop-up mall, features engaging digital experiences designed to enable and inspire runners to be the best they can be. From May, NikeFuel Station at Boxpark will also be one of the select stockists of the Nike+ FuelBand, an innovative wristband that tracks movement throughout the day to help motivate and inspire users to be more active.
NikeFuel Station at Boxpark experiences and services include:
• Floor-to-ceiling motion sensing, interactive LED walls designed to encourage you to move more and demonstrate NikeFuel – a new metric that is the measure of a person’s athletic activity
• Nike+ FuelBand interactive experience created in conjunction with AKQA – an engaging motion sensitive installation where consumers see a life-size, digitized reflection on an LCD wall that reacts to movement to create a stunning piece of digital art that can be shared with friends via social networks. The faster you move, the more spectacular the results!
• Augmented reality tools to bring product technologies to life giving consumers access to interactive, animated product information
• ‘Digital mannequins’ – motion sensitive intelligent mirrors that reveal film footage of local runners wearing key products from the store
• Interactive touch screens – providing consumers with information about Nike+ products, forthcoming Nike+ Run Club sessions and the ability to purchase products from the entire Nike collection via Nikestore.com
• Weekly Nike+ Run Club – free running club open to all East London runners
• Physio and nutritionist services – free regular consultations with physios and nutritionists for Nike+ Run Club members
• Gait Analysis – in-store treadmill to allow consumers to ensure runners purchase the right shoe to match their running style
Andy Walker, Global Creative Director, Nike said: “Nike is changing the face of retail with the opening of Nike+ FuelStation at Boxpark. Nike+ products and services have merged the physical and digital worlds to help inspire and enable athletes of all levels to be the best they can be. Now we’re taking this approach one step further by combining innovative products with digital services and interactive multimedia experiences to create a state-of-the-art retail environment.”
Designed entirely in-house by the Nike Brand Design team, the store mixes futuristic interior design and architecture with features inspired by the first ever Nike store, which opened in Portland in 1973. Just like the original store, Nike+FuelStation at Boxpark features the iconic ‘chevron’ shaped bleacher wall coverings that have been given a modern twist with embedded LCD ‘counting’ numbers replacing the hand painted digits seen on the originals.
NIKEiD Studio at Boxpark
Nike is also opening a separate NIKEiD Studio on the first floor of Boxpark where consumers can design and customise their own performance and lifestyle footwear with the help of consultants drawn from the local design community.
The NIKEiD space has a completely unique look and feel to the NikeFuel Station. Focusing on craft and creativity, the space is a fusion of a luxury boutique, a tailor’s workshop and a design library.
The main feature of the space is a 20 metre long oak bookcase that follows the same ‘chevron’ structure as the bleachers in Nike+ FuelStation. The bookcase is filled with a vast collection of inspiring design titles and showcase products to motivate consumers to design their ultimate Nike shoe.
Other features include four individual design stations set into gym-inspired tables, and two larger design stations using 55” plasma screens to enable groups of friends to collaboratively create designs.
The NIKEiD space is also the first Nike store outside of the US to feature the ‘Bowerman Wall’, an interactive 92” touchscreen wall which showcases an audio visual library of Nike’s heritage. True to the essence of customization the entrance to the space will be a canvas for local artists to showcase their creativity through the lens of Nike innovations.
The new NikeFuel Station and NIKEiD Studio are open now at Boxpark, 2-4 Bethnal Green Road, Shoreditch, London, E1 6GY.

Sneakers embedded with pressure sensors and accelerometers bring all-new opportunities for athletic performance tracking
Originally unveiled in 2006, Nike+ has grown to a committed community of over six million digitally connected users. To build upon this concrete foundation Nike has today announced the Nike+ basketball and training shoes embedded with pressure sensors and accelerometers to collect previously unmeasurable, movement-based statistics across multiple levels of speed and agility. The groundbreaking technology is the next step in building a robust ecosystem, in compliment with the innovative Nike FuelBand and specialized Nike+ mobile apps. While these first shoes and apps are focused on basketball and training, this massive innovation represents the beginning of an entirely new chapter in sport measurement and motivation.
The first sneakers to feature the sensor technology are the Hyperdunk+ basketball shoe and the Lunar Hyperworkout+ and Lunar TR1+ training shoes. In all three shoes four embedded sensors—toe, heel, ball and outer foot—work with an internal accelerometer to accurately measure movement and relay stats to your iPhone wirelessly. The three-axis accelerometer and Bluetooth sensor are contained in a removable disc that lasts for about 40 hours between charges, which are achieved using the included USB adapter. An innovation from Nike’s “Kitchen,” this measurement technology isn’t new—it has been used extensively in design research to better understand how athletes move. The revolution comes from the company’s ability to bring this innovation to consumers in a usable and exciting form.
While the sensor arrays are the same in all shoes, the Nike+ apps the data is sent to provide the different approaches to tracking, motivation and sharing data. Nike+ Basketball lets you know how high you jump, how quick you run, and how hard you play. In addition to these precise stats a universal NikeFuel score is captured—all allowing the user to compare to previous games plus general exercise with their friends.
The Nike+ Training platform takes the same approach, quantifying each and every movement, shuffle, step, lunge and jump. For training, however, the app features videos of pro athletes coaching you through a series of workouts dynamically sequenced based on your fitness goals. The data captured from these workouts not only provides the measurement necessary to set new goals and improve, but also statistics to share with friends or competitors.
All the data gathered is meant not only to impress but to inspire. By making a workout into something close to a game, feelings will positively shift to improve performance and dedication. To fully understand what the latest Nike+ advancements mean for the company, consider President and CEO Mark Parker’s general but bold statement: “It’s about much more than a shoe. It represents a shift for Nike from product, to product plus experience.”
The Nike+ Pressure Sensor enabled Hyperdunk+, Hyperworkout+ and Lunar TR1+ will debut in specialty shops come 29 June, 2012.
