Apple’s new, one-of-a kind, Miami-flavored store at Aventura Mall opened today. Apple's store used to be in the mall and the new store is in it's own building connected to the Mall. The new store is airy, mid-century modern design and large amphitheater styled area for Today at Apple sessions. The video in our report is from the Miami Herald.
Some of the other features include:
- A floating, white-vaulted roof that creates a 35-foot tall pavilion. It’s made of concrete, stone, and glass with a double-height hall. This is the first Apple Store to feature white precast concrete.
- Steps leading to the second floor create an amphitheater called the Forum, with a video wall and leather seating. This is where Today at Apple sessions take place.
- A Genius Grove will feature a canopy of 22-foot tall local tropical trees that continue out into an outdoor public garden area, with teak tables and chairs that mirror the internal layout.
