If you think iPhone and mac book are the most valuable things in the Apple Store, it's all wet! On the contrary, the mobile phone on the shelf is the cheapest.
Jobs thinks Apple Store can help the company build a brand. The store exists not only to sell products, but also to show customers the advantages of Apple products, which is why Apple Store chooses glass facade.
Create brand trust with huge floor-to-ceiling glass, which makes people feel transparent. From the building structure to the wrapping, you can see the inside at a glance. Every joint of the indomitable and one-sided glass is carefully designed and made by the designer.
At the same time, Apple's flagship stores in various cities have made glass facade structures, which are constantly innovating from plane to curved surface.
Ordinary and non-ordinary flat glass
First of all, Apple's iconic flat glass curtain wall. Apple's white glass replaced the traditional wall structure. At the same time, in order to reduce the visual burden and create a light and borderless space effect, the use of glass blocks will be minimized.
Take Hangzhou store as an example. In order to look more concise, the indoor height is set to 15m, and there are no columns on the ground. The facade is only 1 1 a glass panel with a width of about 3m, and there is no gap between the floor and the ceiling. This design is very strict and accurate in terms of installation and process requirements.
The designer fixed the glass on the supporting structure at the top, and the main body was cleverly designed, with the function of wind and shock prevention. The reason why 1 1 piece of glass is chosen instead of 9 pieces or 12 pieces is to ensure that Apple's logo can be placed on a complete piece of glass in the center.
Apple's flagship store in Istanbul, Turkey, surrounded the skylight with four pieces of glass with a width of10m and a height of 3m, and the top was a carbon fiber reinforced plastic (CRFP) panel with the Apple logo. This design not only allows natural light to enter the underground store, but also serves as a visual signpost for the store.
Unique curved glass
With the continuous breakthrough of technology, Apple then began to think about applying curved glass to it.
In front of Apple's flagship store in Pudong, Shanghai, a cylindrical glass tower was installed, which completely changed the original square glass facade of Apple Store.
Apple Store in Ningbo adopts the facade design of concave glass panel, and the storefront is curved, which matches the outline of surrounding buildings. This is also the first Apple Store to use concave insulating glass with a height of12.5m as its facade. The glass panel adopts cold bending lamination technology. Because the degree of rebound effect of cold-formed glass is unknown, the design team did a lot of data analysis and modeling at the beginning of design to test the glass performance.
Ingenious spherical facade
The Apple Sands store in Singapore has a more ingenious design. This is the first Apple store located directly on the water.
This design is the first all-glass dome structure with an overall height of 17m and a width of 30m. It consists of 1 14 glass plates and 10 vertical frames for structural connection. The largest glass panel size is 10m wide x 3m high.
The joints between insulating glass panels are also perfectly hidden in structured places, thus increasing the overall transparency of the building. The circular dome glass panel located in the center of the top, in case of fire, the adjacent glass panels will rise and open to release the smoke in the building, including lighting and automatic sprinkler system. The interior of the dome structure is a completely open column-free space, and the baffle around the dome plays the role of anti-glare and sound-absorbing board.
Glass stairs are also unusual.
In 2002, the old post office in Green Street, Soho District, Manhattan, new york was renovated and became the first Apple flagship store in the world. At that time, the glass staircase was designed by Jobs himself, and it was patented in 2007.
The renovated Apple Store in Manhattan, new york was redesigned on the basis of the original glass staircase. The glass longitudinal beam is in the form of 13 meters long, and the single handrail is not spliced. This staircase can bear more than two tons of weight. Like the facade, the stairs have changed from right angles to spiral stairs. In order to prevent light from escaping, the stair treads are also made foggy.
At the beginning of the design, the designer carefully considered the situation of the structure under personal use and crowd load, and made a model in the workshop of Dutch manufacturers. After various tests, the stairs were dismantled and transported to the site for reassembly.
Apple's new headquarters has also designed a glass elevator with a height of12.8m, which is the highest independent glass elevator in the world and the first elevator rotating on the spiral guide rail.
finally
Booth's requirements for architecture are almost the same as those for mobile phones. He likes designs with complicated designs but extremely simple effects. There are many processes, but it looks simple. He likes modernism, simple and complicated, and uses cutting-edge technology. A seemingly exquisite building is not necessarily high-grade, and a complex and simple building must be wonderful.
