The new store which was a mixture of an existing structure and modern natural wood interior was built in order to highlight the retailers first time venture into the furniture market.
Hermes has created a space that will show off the company's new furniture line that is being launched at Milan Design Week 2011. The captivating new interior makes use of naturally-colored wood comb-like structures in order work with the boutique's merchandise.

The greatest task was the melding of the older refined elements of the existing structure along with the stimulating new enhancements.
