Prada opens two new stores in Lebanon

Prada has opened two new stores inside Beirut's prestigious Aîshti Foundation Mall in Lebanon. Both venues have been designed by architect Roberto Baciocchi, and they showcase respectively the women's and men's collections for clothing, leather goods, accessories and footwear.

The womenswear store extends over a total area of 140 m² on one level. A black marble portal frames two display cabinets adorning the inner façade.

The interiors are defined by a black and white chequerboard marble floor - heritage of Prada's classic image - and walls upholstered in green canvas featuring the classic Prada cut-out niches, profiled in polished steel.

The sophisticated atmosphere is enhanced by display counters featuring colourful saffiano leather details and 'Clover Leaf' green velvet sofas designed by Verner Panton, exclusively reproduced for Prada.

The menswear store extends over a total area of approximately 100 m²; a Saint Laurent brown marble portal lends a masculine tone to the entire premises.

The interiors are characterised by thin ebony strip flooring and orange encaustic walls, with display niches in black metal. The furnishings are completed by bright-coloured display counters and seats in rust-coloured ostrich leather.
