Photos To Celebrate Apple Store Architecture

The thing about Apple Stores – the thing that makes them such a perfect target for the writers of The Simpsons – is the vibe they have about them. They’re not like most stores; entering the Apple Store is supposed to be an experience beyond that of simply handing over money to Steve Jobs. There’s supposed to be a wow factor. And the architecture and interior design is essential to that.

Don’t forget, though: the architecture has a hidden message. And that message is: BUY OUR STUFF. BUY OUR STUFF. BUY OUR STUFF.
