First Missouri State Bank

This Cape Girardeau bank branch received a thoughtful refresh inspired by the local SEMO District Fair. With a focus on practical updates and hometown charm, the redesign features new LED lighting, fresh paint, updated furniture, and a whimsical drink station complete with a popcorn popper. Frosted glass “whispers” offer privacy at the teller stations, while a floating canvas of the historic Wimpy’s Drive-In pays tribute to the site’s roots. Collaborating with local vendors, this space now blends modern professionalism with Cape’s unique history.

“When I first met Cindy, we were contemplating a complete remodel of our 22,000 square foot main banking facility.  The building was built in the 80’s and still gave that vibe so we really needed help.  I began my discussion with Cindy by saying I have no idea what we want, but I’ll know it when I see it, how’s that for direction?  Cindy went through every aspect of the project and provided us with a sample board of every detail to include lighting, flooring, furniture, signage and accessories. She also worked with all the sub-contractors so we could do our jobs, she was very accommodating to our wishes and ideas but also stayed firm when we had some not-so-great ideas, we’re bankers after all not designers.  Which brings me to another area she excels, budget.  She was very mindful of costs and making sure the remodel was appealing and something our customers and employees could be proud of without being too opulent. We are very proud of our facility, and I would invite anyone interested to contact me for a tour.  We also partnered with Unique Ambiance when we finished out our new branch on Main Street in Jackson.  We wanted a modern high-tech design and look and she nailed our vision and included several iconic Jackson looks to include the high school football stadium, the welcome to Jackson sign and other symbols of community pride.  It has a coffee bar and is very open to make customers feel welcome and comfortable.  I would be happy to talk to anyone contemplating a building or remodel project and why Cindy and Unique Ambiance is the best way to go.”
