Hermès Rive Gauche
17, rue de Sèvres
Currently the largest Hermès shop, it opened its doors in 2010 on the banks of the Seine, surpassing the giant flagship stores of other luxury labels. A listed swimming pool from the ’30s has been transformed into a light 16,000-square-foot shop floor. Design agency RDAI managed to integrate Art Deco elements, such as balustrades and supports, into the shop’s design. Particularly eye-catching are the pavilions wreathed with wooden slats and the water-inspired tiled floor.
