New Apple Store In Paris...

Another Reason Why I Want To Travel The World, Simple Things Are So Much Luxurious Across The Water...

A second Apple Store opened on July 3rd, two steps from OpĂ©ra, 18 months after the brand’s first Paris store opened in the Carroussel du Louvre in Nov 2009.
Named as Apple Opera Store, the design is a radical departure from the usual Apple Stores that you might have seen around the world.
The location has been under construction for well over a year, due to the need to preserve and restore historic architecture, such as wooden doors, arched windows and wrought-iron balcony railings on the exterior.

Moved by the romantic architectural beauty and culture of Paris, this new Apple Store does not include any of the usual architectural features of Apple’s previous stores that you might have seen.

Inside, the stainless steel and glass are gone, replaced entirely by marble, wrought-iron, stone and wood that match the features and colors of the existing building.
