Monisha Jaising Flagship is located in Mumbai. The interior design was done by Sameep Padora and Associates.

“Using the A.P.O.C. (a piece of cloth) collection by Issey Miyake from 80′s, as a conceptual starting point, we proposed three multi-operative instalation namely facade, a display system and a ramp/threshold to weave around colmns and beams, manifesting as a response to the abbreviated nature of the space rather than a preconceived desire to create form. This instalation piece becomes both the string that formally binds the faceted space together as well as holds program like displays for Monisha’s signature clothing.
The centerpiece of the space are three horizontal ribbons (each 2′, 6′ high) of highly reflective stainless steel that mirrors users in the space, juxtaposing the clothing hung from the middle band againts their reflection. The users hence become a participant in a dynamic display system.” [sp-arch.net]
