The luxury French fashion house has tapped top designers to create bold, collectible design pieces
The Objets Nomades collection by Louis Vuitton, launched in 2012, features a range of stylish travel-inspired objects created by some of the world's greatest design stars, including Hong Kong's very own Andre Fu. A colourful and eclectic mix of limited editions and experimental prototypes, the meticulously crafted collection pays homage to the French luxury goods house’s long tradition of beautifully made travel objects, while clearly focusing on the present and future.
The setting for the collection has been conceptualised by Fu himself who—along with unveiling his debut Objet Nomade—will bring his signature minimalist aesthetic to create a stunning scenography for the entire collection.
Defying any preconceived notions of what truly chic travel looks and feels like, the pieces embody the defiantly contemporary visions of innovative masters as well as up-and-coming talents from around the world: Atelier Oï, Maarten Baas, Barber and Osgerby, the Campana Brothers, Damien Langlois-Meurinne, Nendo, Gwenaël Nicolas, Raw Edges, Patricia Urquiola, Marcel Wanders, and, most recently, India Mahdavi and Tokujin Yoshioka.
As visitors will discover when the collection comes to Hong Kong from March 24 until April 2, all of the objects they’ve created blur the boundaries between the art and design world.
