DESIGN & DEVELOPMENT RETAIL RENOVATIONS/EXPANSIONS RETAIL STORE DESIGN SILVER GOLD Centres more than 1,000,001 sq. ft. of total retail space Kiosks and Carts Square One Shopping Centre Mississauga, Ontario Faces - Laurier Québec Québec, Québec The expansion and reconfiguration the North Side of Square One Shopping Centre, located in Mississauga, Ontario. The redevelopment includes the addition of ±145,444 square feet of total retail space as well as a new Urban Park which acts as a forecourt to the new North entrance. Faces cosmetics is a well-known Canadian-based international retailer with an established history of nearly 40 years and prominent presence in our Canadian malls. As Faces repositioned their brand to cater to a younger demographic, the overall appearance of their kiosks needed to be redesigned. Major malls were also adding pressure by complaining that the kiosk’s height was creating visual impediments to overall sightlines. The new modernized concept has been a huge success. It has not only helped Faces successfully fill the critical gap between mass-market makeup lines and expensive department store cosmetic brands, but the new trendy design is now appealing to the younger demographic and attracts an overall more fashionforward clientele. The kiosk even complies with the strictest mall design criteria as it is reminiscent of a unit found in high fashion department stores. 45
