Hermès pop-up café: London flagship
Enioy petit fours Hermès style among three thousand ping-pong ball blooms
Hermès has created a vibrant pop-up cafe on the second-floor terrace of its New Bond Street flagship. Three thousand pink, yellow and orange ping-pong balls are suspended on acrylic stalks, surrounding a host of minimalist white tables and matching stools.
Creative duo Isabel + Helen are responsible for the installation, which is in reference to British artist Nigel Peake’s porcelain tableware collection which launched earlier this year at another Hermès installation.
‘We wanted to recreate "A walk in the garden" by abstracting flowers into their simplest form. Repeating them on mass to create a sea of undulating colour, transforming the concrete terrace into a surreal landscape,’ the pair told Wallpaper*
The Hermès cafe will be offering quirky, Instagrammable refuge to Bond Street shoppers, offering teas, coffee and petit fours until mid-July.
