A fit-out project Triplar completed last year for legendary bootmaker Dr Martens has been recognised in the prestigious Retail Week Interiors Awards 2010.

Triplar completed work on the Dr Martens pop-up shop in Spitalfields Market, London, last Autumn and the project has recently won the ‘Pop-up Store of the Year’ award.

Designed by consultancy Campaign, the store was originally envisaged to be ultra low-cost and temporary. Now nearly a year on it remains open and has attracted critical acclaim from a number of retail commentators for its rugged, paired-back ‘rough luxe’ appearance and commercial success.

Triplar completed the store in just six days, fitting a combination of off-the-shelf industrial fittings, like simple light fittings which hang along one wall, and customised elements such as a cash desk made from salvaged crates.

The Triplar team also worked closely with Campaign to value engineer the design and ensure the project came in on budget.

Triplar director Tim Rodwell said: “The tight timescale and unique nature of this exciting project made it particularly challenging. But the finished result and subsequent praise the store has attracted speak for themselves.

“The Dr Martens Spitalfields store illustrates how we work closely with design consultancies and brands to realise imaginative briefs. Our team has the skills, vision and knowledge to bring any design concept to life and it is tremendously rewarding to be involved with a project that has received such acclaim from across the industry.”
