Located in the center of the historical and high fashion quarter of Milan, the women’s boutique is comprised of two floors, boasting approximately a 300-square-meter-surface. Harmoniously in-tune with Maison Margiela store designs, the two-floor store merges with the historical elements of the location.
WOOD-SKIN treats flooring as a sequence of malleable elements, covering the ground floor of Maison Margiela’s new boutique and wrapping around the boutique’s lift as an invitation to visit the first floor.
