Following a comprehensive redesign and expansion, the Hermès store located at Elements mall is once again open for business. The refreshed retail space is a significant upgrade from its original construction in 2009.
The store revamp was spearheaded by RDAI, presenting a unique concept inspired by nature and Chinese cosmology. The design of the store’s façade is particularly eye-catching, featuring ceramic tiles shaped like feathers in a nod to the mythical phoenix. This theme is extended to the display windows, which are adorned with whimsical landscapes designed by artist Claire Detallante.
Inside the boutique, the retail sections are strategically planned and organized. A mosaic flooring pathway guides customers through various collections, from silk and home goods to jewelry and watches positioned at the rear of the store.
The store layout strategically segregates merchandise based on gender, with women’s ready-to-wear, leather goods, and beauty products located on one side, while men’s items are presented in a separately defined section, differentiated by contrasting materials and colors.
The store also serves as a mini-gallery, displaying various artworks from the Emile Hermès collection and the Hermès Collection of Contemporary Photographs. Art pieces from other renowned artists, including Aline Honoré, Luciano Perna, and Denis Polge, are also showcased throughout the store.
In the words of the luxury house: “We invite our customers to visit our newly renovated, light-filled store and discover timeless creations and craftsmanship in a bold new setting.”
