The Pyramids of NY-LON
This retail window installation caught our eye because of the concept behind it, one installed in New York and one in London at the Top Shop stores, The Pyramids of NY-LON are two contemporary interpretations of one of the oldest and most basic of architectural geometries. The pieces, which were installed in the same week on opposite sides of the Atlantic, are a physical representation of the connection between Topshop’s flagship stores in the US and UK. Although unified by their strong geometric form, each pyramid is in fact unique and designed to respond to the technical challenges of each location and represent the distinctive character of each city. Both Pyramids are inverted and hung from the ceiling, hovering a few inches above a mirrored floor.
