Short Visit At The Maison Martin Margiela Store, Beverly Hills

  • Pin it

While searching for unique and surprising deco bits and pieces, I came across pictures with a beautiful store. A fashion brand store. Maison Martin Margiela’s store from Beverly Hills, California.

The design of this special flagship store was signed by Johnston Marklee architects, a firm that’s been involved with (and awarded for) several fashion and art events (the Murakami event at the Museum of Contemporary Art, works at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art) as well as this Mameng and Maison Martin Margiela project from Bevery Hills. The store looks splendidly minimalist and neutrally two-toned. I would’ve expected something less finished and polished from the Maison Martin Margiela. Something rough and more abstract. Is this store representative for the Margiela spirit? (don’t miss the rest of the pictures, right after the jump!)

Margiela in…Beverly Hills?!!?
Its as you said Kpriss, splendid and indeed in the Margiela esprit.
What a fabulous contrast to Rodeo Drive Bling Bling. Its so chic and beyond any A list.

It’s Margiela does LA.. I prefer the less polished shops, like you said, like the one in London.
This whole glitzy glam thing doesn’t fit Margiela, but they probably had to do it to an extent to fit in in Beverly Hills..

I love the look it looks like an art gallery.
