ICYMI: Apple’s floating glass store to open at Marina Bay Sands on Sept. 10
Store visitors get a 360-degree view of Marina Bay, from the ArtScience Museum to Marina Bay Financial Centre to the wide open sea, and encounter no sharp corners or obstructive columns while inside the orb.
Apple Marina Bay Sands, Apple’s third store after Orchard Road and Jewel Changi Airport, also features baffles – spherical strips of metal that act as massive blinds – that protect visitors’ eyes from the sun’s blinding rays and create a night-time lighting effect.Spread across three levels, the MBS store also has an underwater boardroom at its Basement level for entrepreneurs and developers to receive training and advice.
The MBS store represents Apple’s unique and continuing relationship with Singapore, and is also a culmination of 20 years of Apple’s retail design globally, Apple’s senior director of worldwide retail Chris Braithwaite told The Straits Times. “Singapore is special to us because it is an incredibly vibrant city which has a very clear vision and a continuous flow of passions and ideas which Apple can relate to,” he added.
