Hermès–Nature at Full Gallop2016

Across the vitrines of Hermès flagship stores in Geneva and Zurich, Bethan Laura Wood has designed a garden filled with hand-dyed corals that gently sway. When caught in the late summer light this underwater world comes alive, cascading bright shadows.

In these submerged gardens live shoals of the most rare and beautiful species; shoe fish explore, as handbag fish hide from the great leather shark. Graceful wood fish, with their enchanting watch eyes, swim softly though fields of glowing corals. Scarf jellyfish float like dancers in mid performance, displaying their patterns for Hermès customers to enjoy.
