Apple invites the media to explore their absolutely stunning new retail store at the Dubai Mall in the United Arab Emirates
Ahead of the official grand opening of the store on Thursday, Apple has invited members of the media to explore their absolutely stunning new retail store at the Dubai Mall in the United Arab Emirates. Designed by Foster + Parters, the store features rather unique “Solar Wings” which are 180-feet wide motorised carbon fiber windows that respond to the ever-changing environmental conditions in Dubai.
As standard with all new Apple Stores, the new Dubai Mall location will feature Apple’s “next-generation” store design that introduced large glass doors, bright light boxes which extend the length of the ceiling, sequoia wood tables and shelves along the walls and new seating for personal set-up and Genius Bar customers.
In a press release issued by Apple the company said that their new store at the Dubai Mall will be host to high-profile events including live music, intimate conversations with film-makers and photographers, and live workshops with some of the world’s top talent.
At the heart of every Apple Store is the drive to educate and inspire. “Today at Apple“ will launch at Apple Dubai Mall and in all 495 Apple stores next month with new sessions across photo and video, music, coding, art and design, and more, led by highly-trained team members. Apple Dubai Mall will also host high-profile events including live music, intimate conversations with film-makers and photographers, and live workshops with some of the world’s top talent. Events on opening day include Live Art with Myneandyours, and Artist Duos with musician Hamdan Al Abri and artist Sultan Al Ramahi.
