The French design studio Zim & Zou<\/strong>, consisting\u00a0of Lucie Thomas<\/strong> and Thibault Zimmermann<\/strong>, collaborated with Herm\u00e8s <\/a>on a handmade window installation in Shanghai. Anchored in craftsmanship, the complementary and polyvalent duo used their favourite materials - paper and leather - to create displays\u00a0in the French Maison's storefront.<\/p>

The d\u00e9cor combines a Museum of Natural History with a Cabinet of Curiosities resulting in intricate and colourful birds, crabs, fish, insects, butterflies <\/a>and other biological species. The details, such as faces, paws and feathers, were meticulously cut and sculpted from paper, and using leather offcuts from Herm\u00e8s workshops in Paris. Consequently, the two main windows depict air and water in which swims a 5-metre dinosaur paper skull;\u00a0 while the two smaller ones portray the Earth.<\/p>

The entire project took around three months of detailed work by the French artists, with help provided by a local team of artisans in Shanghai. Immediately grabbing our attention and seducing passers-by, the hardwork was well worth the effort - so much so that we can almost forget the undeniably (very) high\u00a0prices of Herm\u00e8s <\/a>itself.<\/p>
