Halleroid Designs the New L/Uniform Boutique in Paris
Amy Duong — May 3, 2023 — Art & Design
Stockholm design studio Halleroid designs a new boutique in Paris for a French bag and luggage imprint led by the studio's design lead Ruxandra Halleröd. The boutique is made up of two rooms that celebrate the brand's French heritage with elements that draw Japanese and Scandinavian design as well -- better known as Japandi. The first room is influenced by a traditional French marketplace with its display furniture and rustic design.
Halleröd speaks to Dezeen, noting that "It reminds us of L/Uniform's use of French canvas on its more functional bags, but on a bigger scale. We used a Shaker-inspired approach where bags are hung from hooks. There's an association with everyday market life because some of these bags are specifically made for bringing to the market."
