Take a seat with Louis
Returning to its long-held concept of “the art of travel”, French luxury brand Louis Vuitton launches “Objets Nomades”, a collection of 16 journey-inspired products.
Offering a mix of foldable furniture and travel accessories, LV has collaborated with designers to pay homage to its special orders of the past.
Among the items is a stool by Patricia Urquiola that unfolds like the corolla of a flower and can be carried like a handbag. Atelier Oi created an origami-inspired stool that also folds away for easy transport.
Christian Liaigre has made a travel desk that is easy to carry. Other items include a leather hammock, a stadium chair, a reading light and a luxurious neck pillow and eye shade.
