Featuring contrasting white polished-marble stair treads, it twists through a circular opening to lead from womenswear on the ground floor to menswear and accessories on the first floor.
Smoked-black glass wraps around the opening with a curved black balustrade adding to the decorative motifs. Sybarite said other details include the irregular wall cutouts that form windows.
Marking the fashion label's largest store to date, the 243-square-metre Miami Design District space is among a number the British studio has designed for the fashion label.
