Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, is set to experience the magic of Apple like never before with the opening of Apple The Exchange TRX, the first Apple Store in the country. This highly anticipated store is located in the heart of Kuala Lumpur’s new Tun Razak Exchange (TRX) central business district. With a full range of products, exceptional service from knowledgeable team members, and inspiring sessions with local creatives, Apple The Exchange TRX promises to be a hub of discovery, creativity, and cutting-edge technology.

Apple The Exchange TRX: A New Landmark in Kuala Lumpur

Apple The Exchange TRX is not just a store; it is an architectural marvel. The store connects the mall’s central atrium to a lush rooftop park that wraps around its upper level. The design features a three-dimensional layered roof made of horizontal glass panels and shading blades, reducing the sun’s rays while emitting a warm glow at night. A central glazed oculus brings natural daylight into the interior, complemented by dynamic artificial lighting.

Inside, a sculptural quartz and glass staircase connects the three levels of the store, offering a seamless experience for customers to explore, learn, and shop. The Forum, home to Today at Apple programming, is situated on a floating deck that joins up with the mall, while the upper level directly connects with the edge of the park, bringing daylight and greenery into the store through a continuous glass façade.
