staircase caterpillar shoes elevation
On the corner of Oxford Street and Portman Street, double height yellow glass panels are opened to reveal the entrance into New Look’s flagship store. An elegant stainless steel stair leads you to a dramatic warehouse space on the first floor, framed by pink tinted windows. A coloured and reflective caterpillar of light divides the store between an extravagant gallery area with seating and cafĂ© and a more densely arranged retail space. Suspended figure drops display the latest fashions and a series of white perspex cubes contain a volume of merchandise.
