[6] Subsequent Design by another architect
This electronic store (156 Fifth Avenue) and the Royal Silk (76 Fifth Avenue)
were both designed in 1986 with low budget. Our approach to strip the
suspended ceiling to reveal the integrity of the original building started
a new trend in the area. The subsequent design (6) for the electronic store
was the clothing store and it was provided by another architect. These two
different designs for the same space indicate the different feelings design
can provoke. Since the budget for the electronic store was 1/10 of the
budget for the clothing store, the existing columns and the floor were left
as originals. The emphases of the design was on funneling the customers
through the store and attracting them to the different displays.
