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.

Moncler continues to open boutique doors in new markets outside of Europe. Following up on their Hong Kong shop, which complemented their London, Milan, and Paris shops. “Designed by the Gilles & Boissier architecture studio, the Shanghai boutique in Plaza 66 covers an area of 130 m² and recalls the DNA of the Moncler brand in its conception, whilst at the same time giving it a contemporary-luxury twist… Two large windows open into the Moncler world, emphasised by French panelling in carved wood with floral relief motifs. It is a welcoming look which is in stark contrast with the glass used for the central counter and the pierre bleu used for the walls and floor.”
