RETAIL RETAIL STORE DESIGN RETAIL STORE DESIGN SILVER SILVER Kiosks and Carts Kiosks and Carts Second Cup Hamilton, Ontario The Source Mississauga, Ontario Since the kiosk is located on a two-storey circular atrium space at the mall’s centre court, we consciously designed the space to be viewed from all angles especially from the top. As a response to its existing circular floor pattern and opening above, the rectangular kiosk is anchored by semi-circular seating areas. An assortment of seating is provided with high communal tables, banquette seating and low lounge seats to cater to Second Cup’s diverse group of customers and their needs. Menu boards, signage and shelving for merchandise display were also seamlessly integrated into the seating’s partitions. Elements from Second Cup’s logo were used to create unique patterns which envelopes the kiosk and its seating areas. Water jet cut steel layered with white oak wood and routered Corian panels were used to create unique finishes for the store and elevate Second Cup’s brand. The Source kiosk located in the Toronto Pearson International Airport (Terminal 1 - US Departures) offers access to the latest consumer electronics for travellers. Its open-concept format, along with the new site, provides more opportunities for consumers to experience a hands-on interaction with products from the world’s leading manufacturers. The Source kiosk sits in a high traffic walkway in the airport, which the design capitalizes on. Due to the heavy pedestrian traffic, the kiosk needed to create an engaging experience to attract the thousands of travellers who pass by The Source. 46
