Supermarket of the Year

Two of our designs were recognized by Chain Store Age in their "Store-of-the-Year" Design Competition (March, 2011 issue). Our design for Lakeview Grocery (Robert Fresh Market) in New Orleans, LA was selected as the best supermarket design. The design we completed for Calgary Co-op was selected for honorable mention.

In Robert Fresh Market's Lakeview store, KRS provided touches of nostalgia using a '50s inspired color palette and hand-lettered signage that harkens back to simpler times, when store associates would provide personal recommendations to neighborhood customers.


The store design concept for Canadian grocer Calgary Co-op was modeled after 19th century classical designs used in the region's grand hotels. Architectural elements were juxtaposed to offer a modern interpretation of classical concept, providing the customer with a unique journey.
