Gold also went to arken's in-counter printer display for Kodak.
The judges commented that it was "an innovative and modern unit placed within a difficult retail environment- it has great balance of branding, education, theatre and interaction and utilises space in an efficient manner".
Arken's wetsuit display for O'Neill gained a silver award in the sports, toys and accessories category.
In the judges words "this striking, modular display for O'Neill is essentially a simply constructed unit that uses bold curves to strike a pose in store - fitting either back to back or side by side, these units utilise graphics and branding in a very bright, clear, controlled manner".
A bronze was awarded to arken's 'life on the move' display for Comet.
These modular units display portable products within the store, all gathered in one dedicated area called 'life on the move'.
