The new layout builds upon Apple's dedicated Pickup counter initiative launched in 2021, which itself was an evolution of earlier Express Counters introduced over a decade ago in markets such as China.
To mark the occasion, Apple released a downloadable set of exclusive wallpapers themed around the store's peacock feather-inspired design, along with a curated Apple Music playlist featuring artists from Bengaluru. The store officially opens to the public at 1 p.m. on September 2.
