nyc: prrrada

Lane took us to the SoHo Prada store just to see its magnificence. The visit secured my feeling that writer Carrie Bradshaw wouldn't realistically be able to shop there. Most interesting was the almost-vacant space itself with its sleek wood, oversize elevator and drastic ramp-meets-stairway.

Store designed by Koolhaas and OMA.

Learn more about Prada's dubious history here. (This article is pretty interesting.)

This store is always worth a heart-pounding, wallet wrenching walk thru. Great article, BTW.
