RIMOWA’s new Las Vegas store is one of six projects that Ware
Malcomb is working on for the high-end luggage and travel accessory retailer,
which is a subsidiary of LVMH Group.
Ware Malcomb
also served as Architect of Record for the newly opened RIMOWA retail store in
San Francisco and one currently underway in Honolulu.
In addition,
the firm provided interior architecture and design services for two stores in
New York City and RIMOWA’s Client Care Facility in Long Island City, New York.
The Las Vegas store at The Forum Shops at Caesars Palace is
comprised of 1,500 square feet in a new in-line casino promenade location.
RIMOWA’s
sleek and contemporary aesthetic was conveyed with a bright, clean pallet of
colors. The design called for the extensive use of illuminated polycarbonate in
the all-new perimeter millwork, as well as translucent acrylic for the
freestanding fixtures.

The Las Vegas store also features RIMOWA’s
illuminated ‘conveyor belt’ that travels up the walls, across the ceiling, and
morphs into shelving in the center of the space. A new second entrance was
installed in the store to facilitate greater foot traffic and visibility.
“This striking new retail store design conveys the high quality
and innovation that are key aspects of the RIMOWA brand,” said Bill
Sotomayor, Regional Director of Ware Malcomb’s New York office.
“We look forward to continuing to roll-out this new retail
concept for RIMOWA stores opening in key markets throughout the United States
and Canada”, added Anthony Simon, Director, Retail Architecture &
Design.
The General Contractor for the project was Alain Hirsch
Construction Corp.
