Hypermarket Minimani
The hypermarket chain Minimani’s latest store in Rovaniemi, Lapland, attracts customers with modern interior design using authentic materials. Warm northern wood creates a peaceful atmosphere in the central part of the hypermarket.
The Minimani family business understands the important competitive edge that interior design can give a hypermarket. When the new retail space was planned for Rovaniemi, the goal was to create a Lappish identity in a distinctive and modern way. Genuine materials were used, and special attention was paid to lighting and the use of colour.

REACHING GOALS TOGETHER IN GOOD SPIRITS
The realisation of new interior design ideas is not always an easy process: open-mindedness is required of both the client and those carrying out the work. Keeping the common goal in mind and proceeding boldly were crucial to the success of this endeavour. The collaboration worked extremely well between Minimani property manager Pekka Haapanen, interior designer Tuula Ylinenpää and Pauli Lemettinen of Insinööritoimisto Seinäjoki Rakennustekniikka, the main contractor for the project.
Another important contributor was Veljekset Vaara customer relationship manager Janne Vaara, who personally ensured the success of the tinting of the fire-protected wood cladding supplied by the company.
