Electronics giant Apple has teamed up with Fosters + Partners on several of its tech stores in the past, with the collaboration now yielding a truly spectacular byproduct in the form of a brand new Apple Store in the Turkish city of Istanbul.
Dubbed 'Apple Bagdat Caddesi' due its location on Istanbul's Bagdat Caddesi avenue, this particular tech store is designed to be flooded with daylight thanks to ample glazing as well as the inclusion of skylights situated on its roof. The store is also replete with a variety of eco-friendly features that include a rainwater harvesting system, a greywater recycling apparatus and the inclusion of ample plantations on its roof.
While the interior aesthetic of this Apple Store location matches the company's iconic and highly recognizable design language, the inclusion of additional sustainability features helps to create a more welcoming and planet-conscious space for Apple customers and retail employees.
