Write for us
Shop Horia welcomes fresh, carefully observed writing about the choices that shape retail spaces and product presentation. We are interested in clear explanations, useful distinctions, and ideas readers can adapt to their own setting.
What to pitch
We welcome proposals on shopfronts, visual displays, retail layouts, packaging, signs, fixtures, and other details of the in-person shopping experience. Strong pitches have a defined subject, a clear reader takeaway, and a reason the topic belongs here. A small, specific question is often more promising than a sweeping claim.
What makes a strong contribution
Write in plain English, explain specialist terms, and be candid about limits and trade-offs. We value original framing and concrete examples that do not depend on invented facts, unverifiable claims, or access to confidential information. Disclose relevant commercial interests in your proposal.
How to send a proposal
Use the Contact page and choose the editorial question option. Include a working title, a short summary, the category that best fits, and a brief note about your approach. A proposal is not a guarantee of publication; please wait for a response before sending a complete draft.
A shop is an invitation to look closer
Good retail spaces make choices visible without making a fuss. We look at the small decisions that help a shop feel clear, distinctive, and easy to explore.
