FIRST PLACE – VISUAL TECHNOLOGY IN A VISUAL DISPLAY
Nokia Flagship

Moscow

The seamless integration of LCD screens into Nokia’s Moscow flagship makes a statement, but it’s how the retailer is using those screens that really caught judges’ attention.

More than 30 screens run around the perimeter of the store, surrounded by translucent walls lit from behind with LEDs. While the screens are mainly used to relay product and sales information to shoppers, the retailer also saw an opportunity to use them as visual merchandising tools.

For instance, at the store’s opening, the screens displayed work by local artists, turning the store into more of a gallery than retail space.

“We can turn the screens into digital billboards,” says Wilhelm Oehl, principal at Eight Inc., which designed the flagship. “We can change the feeling of the space at any time.”

This incorporation of visual technology as a dynamic display hit the right note with the judges.

“It’s fantastic,” remarked one. “The use of technology and lighting makes quite an impact.”
