LOUIS VUITTON: ARCHITECTURE AND INTERIORS
A visionary advocate in interior design and contemporary architecture, Louis Vuitton continues to encourage innovation and creative audacity in the design of all its stores, without losing the essence of luxury and unique brand identity. The process of designing an architectural space to present fashion and accessories dramatically transformed the urban landscape, allowing the creation of a new dynamic form of contemporary architecture.
This new limited edition book, ‘Louis Vuitton: Architecture & Interiors’, delves into the exploration of international Louis Vuitton stores, as well as industrial sites and ongoing projects, and includes interviews with some of the most talented architects and designers of today to discuss the beautiful and complex structures that were produced in collaboration with this worldwide renowned fashion brand. In this way, readers are introduced to the physical aspects of the buildings, as well as the ideas that had guided their design.
These spaces, whilst acting as a beautiful backdrop for the luxury goods and physical manifestations of the brand, are in a genre of their own. Finished with sumptuous and unexpected techniques, the buildings represent the intersection of fashion with interior design.
This book will therefore attract the attention of anyone who is interested in innovative commercial architecture as it explores the dynamic achievements led by the Louis Vuitton brand and illustrates the resulting correlation between fashion, interior design and architecture.
