Shanghai / 2015
Commissioned by the Petit H division of Hermès, emerging design collective Benwu Studio has
created a fall exhibition. Set in Shanghai, it takes up the ground floor of Hermes' flagship store
on Huaihai Rd. (M), where visitors can explore their unique artisan creativity. Petit h, the Hermes
atelier founded by Ms Pascale Mussard, gives materials a second chance, reinventing its form or
use. Renaissance, recycling... a new life emerges from the alchemy of the elements themselves
and artistic intuition. Benwu studio applies this design idea and used discarded leather of
Hermes to create a scene of golden leaves in the exhibition.
