It’s hard to think of anything better to represent the selection at a fashionable shoe store than a giant display resembling stacked shoe boxes. That’s what HUGE Architecture did for the Source flagship store in Shanghai. Source doesn’t just offer shoes, but that didn’t stop them from prominently featuring their footwear in the center of the store.
The Source flagship store is just the beginning for the fashionable company that opened in 2006. Plans for a Beijing store are already in the works, and we wouldn’t blame them if they designed the next store the same as the Source flagship store.
