Set within the now iconic gateway to Manchester's luxury shopping quarter, this high-end retail scheme for Giorgio Armani includes two levels in excess of 6,000 Sq Ft. Constructed in UV bonded glass and low-iron black quartz glass, the perimeter furniture had to be sourced in Switzerland where expertise existed to achieve the required heights. The façard a 100Ft wingspan illuminated Eagle logo that changes colour with each season's collection.
Dynamic internal stair is a span structure built without any support beneath. Clad in black quartz granite, the stair uses that glass balustrade as a strengthening member to achieve the very demanding spans.
