Opening Event
The Store
The store has two levels of shopping, but by volume, it occupies a space from level 1 all the way to the top at level 4.
At the upper level, there’s a huge screen dedicated for ‘Today at Apple’ free sessions where a speaker will show you how to use Apple product in an interesting way.
At a glance, the store might look unremarkable for the uninitiated. However, the devil are always in the details. Take for the store front. Looks like a normal glass store front right? The small details are the giant 10m high pane glass specially created for the store. With the huge cathedral-like hall with the big Apple logo, it looks like a church.
The attention to detail continues in the store. The crushed marble floor might have some lines to allow for expansion. You’ll noticed that the table aligns with the lines on the floor which aligns perfectly with the tiles on the wall.
The lift shaft is a perfect tube that goes all the way up. Instead of panels for the buttons, it’s just button that is flushed to the wall.
The upper levels has the Apple TV and Music section. In the middle there’s a large display with chairs for ‘Today at Apple’ sessions. The roof have a hole in the middle where you can see the ever changing clouds.
