THE UNIVERSE OF HERMÈS extends beyond the silk scarves and flawlessly-constructed leather goods and bags which the house is known for to include exquisite collections for the home. Sleek, contemporary and beautifullymade, to own a piece of Hermès furniture or homeware is to appreciate its unique place in design and luxury. Along with furniture, Hermès also offers lighting, tableware, textiles, fabrics, wallpaper and objects to enliven and invigorate the space at home.
In keeping with the ethos of artistic director Pierre-Alexis Dumas, the goal is not about offering a wide breadth of products, but instead those that have a specific function. To that end, the French house has appointed Charlotte Macaux Perelman and Alexis Fabry for the task of overseeing this important arm of the Hermès universe. Both Macaux Perelman and Fabry joined the house in November 2014 as deputy artistic directors who oversee the creative design for the Hermès home universe.
