The transformation was led by former Burberry CEO, Angela Ahrendts. Angela, Apple’s Head of Retail, was hired by the technology giant two years ago. Spearheading the design change is Apple’s Design Chief, Sir Jony Ive. (Image Courtesy: Apple)

New & Improved

Angela Ahrendts was quoted as saying that the company plans to renovate 20 existing stores in the U.S., including ones on Fifth Avenue and San Francisco’s Union Square, due to the stores outgrowing their space. According to her, nearly 60 per cent of Apple stores pre-dated the iPhone and had outgrown their space. (Image Courtesy: Apple)

Design Debut

The new design has already made its debut in stores in Brussels, Belgium, Memphis, Tennessee and Guilderland, New York. “Fifteen years ago today Apple opened its first two stores and we’re thrilled to mark the occasion with the opening of Apple Union Square in San Francisco,” she said. “We are not just evolving our store design, but its purpose and greater role in the community as we educate and entertain visitors and serve our network of local entrepreneurs,” Ahrendts told the media. (Image Courtesy: Apple)

Redefining Retail Space

The stores will have a more luxurious look, retaining the iconic glass walls, and wooden tables. Some of the glass walls at the Brussels store are curved, giving the place a softer look. According to analysts, the stores are designed in a way to encourage people to hangout, as they would in a coffee shop. (Image Courtesy: Apple)

Corporate Social Responsibility

In addition to this, Apple plans to use the outside of its stores to develop public spaces – for example, the store in San Francisco will be a plaza, with a fountain and a lot of greenery. (Image Courtesy: Apple)
