Radisson Blu Mall of America
The newly-opened Radisson Blu Mall of America (MOA), directly connected to over 500 shops and restaurants in one of the world’s biggest shopping malls, features stunning interiors by British designer Graven Images inspired by its unique retail environment; the character and history of its location in Bloomington, Minnesota; and the European design influence, integral to its parent brand’s DNA.
This is the brand’s second ‘outing’ in the USA; its flagship Radisson Blu Aqua in Chicago opened in November 2011 and netted Carlson-Rezidor and Graven Images a prestigious Golden Key Award for its thought-provoking, contemporary interiors. The Radisson Blu MOA, a mere 15 minutes’ drive from Carlson-Rezidor’s global headquarters, takes the brand’s reputation for pushing design boundaries one step further and demonstrates its parent company’s great energy and ambition. The result is a considered interpretation of context which stays true to the design-led ethos behind Radisson Blu, enhancing the experience of everyone who passes through its doors.
