The boutique’s interior design draws upon WANT’s roots in travel, taking cues from mobile spaces like airports and train stations, airplane cabins and metro cars. Functional, timeless, and modular, the space complements WANT’s minimalist wardrobe for the modern traveller.
The boutique’s furniture references the precise construction of classic commercial aircraft while the space’s focal point, a sculptural stainless stee, shelving unit presenting the WANT capsule wardrobe, takes inspiration from airport baggage carousels. The interior is punctuated by solid wood furniture crafted by Lambert. Part of a series titled “Retailles”, these unique pieces are made from discarded wood recuperated from the manufacturing of furniture. “Retailles” is part of an ongoing project for the study of upcycling waste materials.
Designed in collaboration with Nicholas Sangaré
