Alongside its counterpart in New York, designed by Rem Koolhaas's OMA, this flagship store in Tokyo is the second "epicentre" to be realized for the Italian fashion house Prada. The vivid, iconographic architecture, with its free forms, dominant structures and sculptural design both internally and externally, lends the building an exceptional quality, making it an eye-catcher and an emblem of the fashion concern.
