WG&R Shines Spotlight on Luxury Store

WG&R were awarded the M&E contract for a luxury clothing and accessories retailer at their prestigious Canary Wharf store. Specialist lighting was an essential feature in the delivery of a shopping experience that upheld the clients brand identity and their commitment to building customer loyalty.

Embracing the Spirit of Performance

WG&R successfully completed the M&E fit out for a Japanese sports and performance-wear brand in London’s Carnaby Street. This flagship store, set over three floors, is the labels first to enter the European market.

The use of LED and track lighting systems provide directional patterns and brightness levels that accentuate the full range of trademark products displayed throughout the store.  Creating a sense of identity and embodying the client’s passion for movement and innovation.

Made in England

In conjunction with the main contractor, WG&R produced a full mechanical and electrical design package to create a stunning, quintessentially British shopping experience in St Paul’s, London.

A challenge of the project was balancing the creative concepts with the logistical demands of a store divided into three discrete areas and joined by a panelled Georgian archway.

The multi-split type air conditioner uses variable refrigerant flow control to deliver the utmost in comfort by way of individual climate control settings in each zone. Feature lighting schemes accentuate the stores contemporary and abstract artwork, whilst signature fittings illuminate the cash desk.
