The Details

Name: The Yellow Bee

Designed and decorated by: Selfridges

Sponsor: Selfridges Exchange Square

Design Inspiration

Spray-painted in Selfridges bold Pantone 109 (otherwise known as ‘iconic Selfridges yellow’), this Bee is inspired by their signature hue and the high-intensity glossy finish of ceramics. Reflecting the buzz of the Selfridges Exchange Square store and the city itself, ‘The Yellow Bee’ symbolises their commitment to a brighter, more sustainable future.

Founded by American entrepreneur Harry Gordon Selfridge in 1909, Selfridges is widely regarded as the first and best example of a modern department store. In 2003 W. Galen Weston purchased the brand and under his ownership Self ridges has become a global destination for fashion, luxury brands and retail theatre. Selfridges Exchange Square opened in Manchester city centre in 2002.
