A home is a place that reflects who you live in, your life experiences, and what you are passionate about. The new flagship store has a warm atmosphere, as if you were invited to a friend's "apartment" and is full of the Maison's authenticity and energy. It has been reborn as a space where you can feel the mindset.
Just like each room in an “apartment” in Paris, the Maison’s new flagship store has its own unique space. At the entrance, a tall desk welcomes guests as if they were in an atelier. The Parisienne bookcase-like shelves are lined with new collections, leather goods and accessories are displayed alongside paintings, books and furnishings linked to the themes and colors of the collection.
