Ware Malcomb, an award-winning international design firm, today announced that construction is complete on Indigo Rideau Centre<\/a>, a new Ottawa flagship retail location for the Canadian-based retailer.

\u201cWe were very pleased to collaborate with Indigo on an innovative new design concept that aligns so strongly with their brand promise,\u201d said Christina Kolkas, Regional Director for Ware Malcomb. \u201cThe result is truly a destination retail environment that feels inviting, inspired and curated.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cOur Ware Malcomb team partnered with Indigo and the whole project team to bring the company\u2019s brand promise \u2018Life, On Purpose\u2019 alive through the store design,\u201d said John Holland, Regional Director for Ware Malcomb\u2019s Ottawa office. \u201cWe created a two-story space with an open floorplan, which maximizes sightlines to a variety of inspiring fixtures and showcases the merchandise throughout.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The store\u2019s open design was achieved by removing walls within the space and ensuring structural integrity of two adjoined historic structures. The interior features a clean, neutral colour palette to showcase the diverse selection of merchandise, while a designated kids\u2019 area within the space is delineated by a bold dark blue colour. A light oak surface accented with white and black metals was chosen for the store\u2019s fixturing. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ware Malcomb\u2019s retail portfolio<\/a> includes projects for some of the nation\u2019s largest retail chains, as well as for regional retail developments and corporate headquarters. Ware Malcomb\u2019s retail experience includes master planning, architectural, interior and signage design for new buildings and centers, as well as renovation of existing facilities.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n
