CINDERELLA IS PROOF THAT A NEW PAIR OF SHOES CAN CHANGE YOUR LIFE

2001 R.I.A.I. Exhibition Award Winner

 

The only new façade in O’Connell Street in for over 25 years.

 

The new elevation essentially reads as two plots redefined in limestone and sandstone cladding, with curtain wall sections and pressed metal panels as unifying elements. The raised window above widens the shop’s profile within the whole street, and challenges the perception of the shopfront only existing at street level.
