Prada Epicenter 上海

Prada Epicenter ShanghaiThe Bund, Shanghai’s riverside avenue, will accommodate the new Prada Epicenter. As opposed to the other fashion brands that occupy former colonial buildings on the east side, the new Epicenter occupies 300m of an existing parking structure and a strip of small shops, all located under a 15m wide pedestrian boardwalk by the Huang Pu river.

The condition forces Prada and OMA to reinvent / rearrange the store elements in a new way, and to adjust to the eccentricity of the current situation.Read moreLocationShanghai, ChinaClientPRADAYear2005StatusCommissioned StudyProgramRetailPartnerRem KoolhaasTeamCollaborators
