DDI Magazine Recognizes WD Partners as a Design Firm of the Year

COLUMBUS, Ohio, Sept. 20, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- WD Partners, a leading retail design and development firm, has been recognized as a Design Firm of the Year by the 2012 DDI Portfolio Awards. These awards, based on an annual survey of DDI readers, recognize the best, brightest and most innovative people, projects and companies in the retail design industry. Each category is a write-in vote, rather than multiple-choice – making all parties equal contenders for these awards.

Lee Peterson, EVP of Creative Services, accepted this award at the September DDI Forum in Napa, CA.  When asked to define WD's design philosophy Peterson explained that "WD's instincts and brand-based design approach strikes the balance between compelling concepts and practical needs."  

Over the past few years WD Partners has been awarded several prestigious design awards for major international client work. Most notably, in 2011 and 2012 the firm was honored by Retail Design Institute and VMSD magazine for its work with E-Mart, one of South Korea's largest retailers. WD Partners is continuing to expand globally through its work with Starbucks, Samsung, Gap Inc., Limited Brands, Walmart, Tim Hortons, and Gatorade.
