Artwork description:

One of the cascading staircases at the iconic Apple Store Chicago, captured by photographer William Dey.
Inside, Foster + Partners responded to Apple’s wish to have the store be a community gathering place as much as it offers a retail presence. The firm designed multiple cascading staircases with landings inside and outside the multi-story space. These staircases function as a “town hall,” where people can linger and exchange ideas. The architects used a wealth of subtle materials and details that quietly stay out of the limelight, leaving the spectacular staircases and river view to draw people down to The Forum.
A portion from the proceeds from the sale of this artwork will be donated to the Chicago Architecture Center. Formerly known as the Chicago Architecture Foundation, the Chicago Architecture Center is a nonprofit cultural organization with tours, exhibitions, programs and events for all ages. Their mission is to inspire people to discover why design matters.
