Apple Store Design Patents Confirmed in Istanbul and Zhongjie Joy City, China

Apple Store Istanbul-China-Patents-0

Since one of the most representative Apple Stores of the company was inaugurated in Istanbul in 2014, Apple has been modifying in part its design philosophy in the Apple Store giving it certain touches that, although they do not modify the appearance of the whole, they do manage to evolve said design giving it one more twist. So much so that the Cupertino-based company was recently granted a design patent for said shop in Istanbul, commonly known as «Glass lantern», that is to say, glass lantern.

This store is the largest in Turkey and as you can see from the header image, it consists of a rectangular glass structure with the Apple logo on the top, this gives access to an interior view of the store that is located a few levels below, the glass structure is also surrounded by a water source, really from my point of view it is spectacular.

The second patent has been granted for the store that Apple has in the Chinese city of Shenyang, specifically at the Zhongjie Joy City complex. The design consists of two floors with an upper floor suspended on a glass floor in addition to the front of the store, fully visible from the outside. On the other hand, the height of the store is quite contained and will supposedly be a standard for many other stores that Apple will open in the future.

Undoubtedly the design of both its products and the Apple Store they are very characteristic and they give a very powerful brand image, without going any further not long ago different patents were also granted by the Apple Store on Fifth Avenue (with Steve Jobs at the helm as creator of this iconic store) and the store located in Shanghai. Of course, the interior also plays its role in the design as we talked about in this other article with the ideas that Angela Ahrendts, head of the retail division at Apple, wants to implement.
