Founded in 1988 by Belgian designer Martin Margiela, Maison Martin Margiela has become one of the most influential and iconic brands in the world. The house is acclaimed for its cutting edge designs. Whilst developing themes for the décor of its own work spaces, the Maison created a small collection of objects and publications that was later revisited and eventually resulted in a collaboration with family run French homeware brand L’ATELIER d’exercises, which is available on COUTURELAB.
The Maison Martin Margiela creative team gives us their definition of luxury:
From the dictionary: a clever and sensitive balance between what is expensive and what is delicate, between the evidence of price and the evidence of great beauty, between necessity and will.
What are the three luxuries you allow yourself?
Space, time, and their relationship: distance.
