On the occasion of Art Basel yesterday, CHANEL inaugurated an incredible two-floor 7,600 square foot boutique in the heart of Miami’s Design District, designed by iconic architect Peter Marino.
An exhilarating 30 foot tall central atrium topped by a 120 square foot skylight creates a vivid space full of light. The exclusive artworks chosen by the architect -as always- reflect Gabrielle Chanel ‘s legacy as a patron of arts. Verra Lutter’s monumental camera obscure photograph “LACMA with Yang- Na 2011-Present, 1. March 8, 2017 lines one wall of the atrium, all body graphic lines and ethereal palm trees.
“Chanel invented the modern woman—vibrant, forward-looking, stylish. It’s that spirit that [the] store captures, while articulating what it is that makes Chanel uniquely Chanel ”. More than 300 pictures show how Peter Marino’s design sensibly mingles with Chanel’s aesthetics and elevates the retail space to the realm of fine art.
