GLASS MARKET - PROGRESS PHOTO
UNDER CONSTRUCTION
PRE-RENOVATION (FUTURE PHASES)
OUT WITH THE OLD, IN WITH THE NEW In order to continue sales throughout the project, the Glass Market renovations will be completed in five phases. The image above, taken June 2016, shows evidence of the transformation taking place as Phase III construction is underway. The new retail gallery will introduce a clean, bright aesthetic, in keeping with the newest museum addition. The crisp, white, custom mobile fixtures against a muted back-drop and new lighting begin to highlight the glass displays in a compelling manner. Key issues such as lighting, line of sight, way-finding, increased capacity for lockable storage on the floor, custom and versatile displays and design consistancy are addressed in the new design. Implementation of these improvements aim to enhance the shopper experience and increase sales. MY ROLE • Champion the re-design efforts for phases three, four and five of the Glass Market. • Improve upon the design of several custom floor fixtures, perimiter wall fixtures and display hardware from the first two phases (prior to my involvement). • Conduct design review meetings with the client and design team. • Lead the production of revised design development and construction document packages for phases three, four and five. • Carry out construction administration for the renovation of the Glass Market and new custom (perimeter and floor) fixtures for phases three, four and five.
