As part of an ongoing collaboration with Louis Vuitton on the Maison's architectural identity, OMA designed a series of trunk towers for the atrium of the newly opened NYC store on 57th Street.

Shohei Shigematsu, Partner, OMA: “Our installation uses iconic Louis Vuitton trunks in a playful display that intuitively and instantly communicates the Maison’s heritage and spirit of innovation. Conceived to fit the central atrium of the temporary store, the four trunk towers are part structural and part sculptural, familiar in materiality yet foreign in shape, height, and slenderness created by their distinctly stacked forms. Together, they become a spatial amplifier that feels surreal yet rooted to Louis Vuitton’s origins."

Bangladesh’s economy is one of the fastest growing in the world. Fifty years after independence, Bangladesh is the second largest economy in South Asia.

Designed by Ellen van Loon and Giulio Margheri, the shop-in-shops for Jacquemus in Paris and London mark the collaboration between AMO and the French fashion label. The first two shops at Galeries Lafayette and Selfridges opened to the public in July, and a third store will open at Harvey Nichols later this Fall.

Ellen van Loon: “The inspiration for the design of the Jacquemus stores owes to the brand’s origins in the south of France. We wanted to capture the atmosphere of Provence through the materiality of the spaces, which led us to approach the design in a different way altogether. Instead of working with form and deciding on the materials afterwards, we chose the materials at the outset and let them guide the shape of each space.”

At a moment when the complexity of each three-dimensional undertaking is infernal, the preservation of the void is comparatively easy. In a deliberate surrender – a tactical maneuver to reverse a defensive position – the project proposes to extend this political shift to the domain of urbanism: to take urbanism’s position of weakness as its premise.

For the Prada SS2023 menswear show, AMO designed a set in the shape of an abstracted paper house. Ten-meter-high rolls of white paper unfurl from the ceiling of the Deposito creating a space that is at once domestic and industrial. Oversized doors and windows, like from the drawing of a child’s ideal home, create an interplay of scales giving the feeling of being inside a gigantic mock-up space.
