STYLE Edit: Beloved by Melania Trump and Victoria Beckham, luxury fashion brand Hermès also offers gorgeous home accessories – as these 10 pieces prove
Hermès new Collections for the Home 2020-2021 features a game table with secret compartments, a hand-embroidered rug and an ‘aircraft wing’ coffee table
Every home is an extension of artistic expression – one more canvas on which to hone our creative skills – and home furnishings offer a meaningful medium with which to explore shape and colour. Quality takes work, though, especially when striving for visually stimulating mixes of textures and materials.
Thankfully Hermès is on hand to help with its Collections for the Home: 2020-2021, which strikes a neat balance between style and utility that speaks to all audiences.
Equilibre d‘Hermès
The brand’s latest offerings include a trio of pieces inspired by the La Tourette monastery chair, first designed by Jacob Morrison on commission in 1997 and now introduced as part of a set alongside a table and an armchair. Presented with lightness and simplicity, it belies a complexity that has come to be a signature for the designer.
Hippodrome d‘Hermès
True home-decor enthusiasts know how important a central table is – it is the focal point of a room, a piece of furniture that is practical and functional, yet manages to convey a personality all its own. The design team, Normal Studio, has created just such a piece, in the form of the Hippodrome d’Hermès coffee table. Juxtaposing a rectangular oak top with aircraft wing edges and an oval lower shelf of burnished bridle leather, the table gives an understated elegance to the room.
