Consequently, designing store windows has become an art form in itself.

This book shows how successful store windows have become an important mediator between goods and the consumer. The volume includes windows designed for legendary, world–famous brands the likes of Versace, Burberry, Chanel, Dolce & Gabbana, Gucci, Prada, as well as the designs from top professionals such as Simon Doonan for Barneys. |
