由福斯特建筑事務(wù)所設(shè)計的最新蘋果店在巴黎香榭麗舍大街開業(yè)，占據(jù)了巴黎一個歷史悠久的公寓的庭院。華麗的學(xué)院派建筑被“精心編織帶有豐富層次感、融合歷史與當(dāng)代元素以及充滿光線的誘人空間。”

這一設(shè)計是福斯特建筑事務(wù)所和蘋果首席執(zhí)行官喬納森·埃維先生合作的結(jié)果，之前該事務(wù)所已經(jīng)設(shè)計過包括米蘭自由廣場，芝加哥密歇根大道和倫敦攝政街蘋果店。

該建筑位于香榭麗舍大街和華盛頓街的拐角處，其幸存的細(xì)節(jié)部分經(jīng)過修復(fù)并與設(shè)計相結(jié)合，“在充滿活力的當(dāng)代室內(nèi)空間中交相輝映”。游客通過一個裝飾華麗的19世紀(jì)巴黎走廊進(jìn)入，兩側(cè)是展示空間，然后被引導(dǎo)到一個新修復(fù)的“室內(nèi)庭院”。

庭院裝飾著巨大的成熟樹木，由一個獨特的萬花筒太陽能屋頂光圈激活，鏡面金字塔反射陽光到內(nèi)部表面。屋頂?shù)臒舾采w在外部的太陽能板上，同時從下方反射周圍城市景觀的碎片圖像。隨著白天和夜晚的交替，收到立體派啟發(fā)的屋頂燈光的效果發(fā)生了變化，從每個角落提供新的體驗。

修復(fù)過程中保留的原始特征包括修復(fù)的木材和連接上下層的大理石大樓梯。鑒于公寓在其整個生命周期中已經(jīng)被用作很多用途，福斯特事務(wù)所的建議試圖恢復(fù)建筑的原始精神，恢復(fù)了一些功能，例如樓梯與動態(tài)的如屋頂采光燈新添加物并置。新與舊之間的不斷過渡設(shè)計是為了讓游客欣賞該位置的歷史，從當(dāng)代空間捕捉歷史建筑，反之亦然。

我與福斯特建筑事務(wù)所的合作已經(jīng)進(jìn)入第10 個年頭，我很高興我們一起完成了這樣一個特殊的項目。我愛巴黎。香榭麗舍大街的規(guī)模和活力是這座城市魅力和吸引力的縮影，而蘋果香榭麗舍大街店則是這種活力的延伸，它被包裹在一個歷史的表皮內(nèi)，精心地將新舊事物并列在一起。

Champs-élysées is one of the most famous avenues in the world. It is a celebration of Parisian urban life and epitomizes the timeless spirit of this great city. The ornate Beaux-Art style buildings that line the famous tree-lined boulevard have been synonymous with Parisian living for centuries. Tapping into the energy and vitality of the historic promenade, Apple Champs-élysées captures the essence of this bustling metropolis by creating a unique courintérieure(interior courtyard) within a quintessential Parisian apartment, carefully interweaving several layers of history with contemporary, light-filled and inviting spaces. The courtyard pulls the vitality of the historic promenade deep into the building, creating a unique interior experience that is full of life and energy.

Situated on the corner of Champs-élysées and Rue Washington, the surviving original detailing of the historic building has been carefully restored and seamlessly incorporated within the design, sympathetically juxtaposed with dynamic contemporary interior spaces. The entrance is via a beautiful 19th century Parisian passage, with display spaces on either side. It leads to a newly revived courtyard with large mature trees that create an almost external and natural setting and a unique Kaléidoscopesolar roof-light,featuring mirrored pyramids that reflect dappled sunlight onto the internal fa?ades and floor below. The Kaléidoscope- covered by photovoltaic panels above - reflects fragmented images of the surrounding building fabric when you look up from within the courtyard, referencing the Cubist tradition. The effect changes throughout the day and night and as you move through the building, offering a new experience from every corner. This inspirational space will host the Forum, where experts from various fields will entertain, inspire and teach visitors at Today at Apple events. Adjacent to the courtyard are calmer spaces,green walls and seating, creating the ideal place for visitors to pause and rest.

Internally, a beautifully restored original timber and marble escalierd’honneur(grand staircase) leads up to the floors above. Initially designed as a collection of appartement bourgeois, the building has gone through several incremental changes throughout its lifetime, and the design aims to revive the original spirit by restoring the detailing and interconnected spaces of the 19th century Parisian apartment. The later additions to the building have been completely reimagined, creating a dynamic juxtaposition of new and old. This layered transference of scale and style allows visitors to appreciate the history of the location, as they pass through the display areas in different rooms, catching framed glimpses of the historic fabric from the contemporary spaces and vice-versa. Each of the rooms has balconies that open onto the Champs-élysées, against the backdrop of Paris and views of the Eiffel Tower.
