Ferrari’s London Flagship Redefines Retail Design

Ferrari’s flagship on Old Bond Street brings luxury retail and architectural precision together.

Dear PA reader,

Ferrari’s flagship London store on Old Bond Street captures architecture integrated with retail design, brand identity, and spatial drama. Alongside this, the growing urgency of net-zero architecture and energy efficiency reflects a profession increasingly shaped by environmental responsibility. In Istanbul, İlber Ortaylı’s 13-step route offers another perspective, revealing how architecture preserves memory while continuing to shape the city’s evolving identity.

Across the globe, design is becoming more adaptive, expressive, and civic. High Line Bangkok transforms discarded streetlights into a vibrant zero-waste pavilion, while Liceu Mar in Barcelona points to new possibilities for the waterfront cultural hub. Together with geometric facades, responsive buildings, living architecture and even China’s longest outdoor escalator, these stories highlight architecture as a force that is not only visual, but increasingly urban, ecological, and alive.
