Our Greatest Hits
Maggie and Arbilina, as entrepreneurs, CEOs, and founders, have scaled international businesses and executed bold ideas across various platforms. Their greatest hits form the foundation of The CFD and drive its approach today. These projects aren’t CFD work but represent the deep knowledge and expertise that power what we do. This is more than a portfolio – it’s a roadmap from “what if” to “hell yeah!”
Experiential Beauty Bars
Arbilina led the successful launch and expansion of a beauty bar concept across key European cities. These shop-in-shop beauty bars provided busy shoppers with convenient, high-quality treatments alongside Dashl’s beauty line, creating a seamless retail experience. The model increased foot traffic and in-store sales for partners while offering Dashl prime-location brand exposure, a steady customer flow, and an asset-light expansion strategy. Collaborations included H&M, MQ Market, Gina Tricot, and NA-KD Fashion.
Nurseries
With a passion for innovation and boundary-pushing design, Maggie has brought her nursery and childcare expertise to The CFD. She believes early childhood education should be as dynamic and inspiring as the children it serves. By thinking outside the box, she crafts unique curricula and imaginative spaces that spark curiosity, foster mindfulness, and integrate educational best practices. The results are vibrant, functional environments where young minds and curious hands are safe to learn and explore.
Family Clubs
Maggie pioneered the family club concept. With multiple clubs launched across London and Asia, she is a seasoned expert at blending unique design concepts with practical solutions to create environments where families can connect, grow, and thrive. Clubs like Maggie & Rose and b-together are prime examples of how her work has resulted in timeless, standout spaces that continue to flourish globally.
