The Pink Wall serves as the bubblegum pink facade of designer Paul Smith's flagship store on Melrose Avenue. It is more widely known, however, as a backdrop for selfies. People journey to the Pink Wall from across the world for a chance to snap a pic at the iconic location made famous by Instagram influencers.
While the rectangular building is in fact one of his many fashion outlets the vibrant pink wall - which owes to Mr Smith's love of colour and contrast - has become one of the world's top tourist attractions.
The West Coast-based shop, in Melrose Avenue, opened in 2005. Since then the fashion brand"established itself as a landmark". A spokeswoman for Paul Smith said: "Located on Melrose Avenue, the shop’s vibrant pink façade stands out against the brilliant blue LA sky.
"Inspired by Luis Barragán’s confident and optimistic use of colour the shop, with its unique façade, has become a destination, attracting visitors from all over."
