Hermes New Paris Boutique

Dezeen brings us looks inside Hermes new Paris boutique designed by the RDAI agency. “French architects RDAI have completed this new Paris boutique for fashion brand Hermès inside a 1930s swimming pool building. Hèrmes Rive Gauche features three nine-metre high wooden pavilions made of ash laths, each housing the Hèrmes collections. A fourth wooden structure lines the staircase leading visitors from the entrance into the former pool.” A very natural feel to the finish – and beautiful of course.

Hermes Boutique by RDAI

selectism - Hermes Boutique by RDAI

Once upon a time, this space housed a spectacular pool. Appropriated by Hermes, and under the eye of architectural firm RDAI, the swimming baths become a dry land playground for the luxury brand’s new South Bank boutique.  The sweeping staircases and a series of twisting wooden pavilions delineate space in the large center area. This helps keep aspects of the brand separate and makes for more intimate shopping areas.

A nice reuse of venue, capitalizing on past luxury while infusing a new sense of environment.

For those interested, Dezeen has more information from the architects.

adidas DB Doley Lux

Selectism - adidas-doley-db-01

We’ve been fans of footwear without ostentatious branding, so this pair of adidas was always going be up our alley. The laces are what sells us on these. Don’t get us wrong, the tan colouring is great, the sole isn’t too thick and it’s got a relatively slim profile, but the laces are what makes this. It’s so good we don’t even mind that the DB stands for David Beckham. (Crooked Tongues)
