Article Abstract:
Jean-Pierre Heim and Galal Mahmoud Architects designed a prototype four-story clothing store on Rue Francois Premeir street in Paris, France. The design is a symmetry of a fish which is the botique's logo. From the outside the store looks like an aquarium due to its large transparent windows. A fishlike form is seen on the ceiling from below through a cutout on the second floor.
