MAISON MARGIELA’S NEWLY REFURBISHED LONDON STORE bY DUTCH ARCHITECT ANNE HOLTROP

 

Spanning over two levels, the 250-square meter boutique displays the complete range of Maison Margiela’s Co-Ed collections from Ready-to-wear to fragrance. The concept was developed by Dutch architect Anne Holtrop to reflect the evolved visual language established at the house by creative director John Galliano.

The newly refurbished boutique is the true definition of phenomenology in interior design. Swooning over the plastered walls and the organic forms moulded for the touch of the eye. The alignment of high-end fashion with the experience of visiting an art gallery truly accentuates the overall visual language of the boutique! Misfit furniture is designed in the memory of classic objects, deconstructed in form. The technique of décortiqué further materializes in shelves, display tables, and seats carved in stained travertine, the natural indentations filled with colour-contrasting epoxy resin in optical white. The ceilings and walls of fitting rooms are painted in a dark-green high gloss, almost black creating a deep shimmering shine echoed in Japanese lacquer cabinets.
