The design:retail awards are a huge honor for Bergmeyer and affirms our national presence in the retail market space. What’s most rewarding about the acknowledgement though is that the firm and Principal Joe Nevin were nominated by peers and industry experts, not by the editorial staff or an awards committee. The firm and firm leader Joe Nevin are – in design:retail’s words – “reshaping retail through their passion and creativity, and carving out new paths through their work and interactions. They are the motivators, risktakers, challengers and standouts, and are molding the future of retail design as we know it.” See more in the September 2014 issue of design:retail.
