Promenade Hermès Museum, Seoul

In the Promenade Hermès Museum, is an imaginary forest that was designed to create a very fantastic aura utilizing the motive of verticality and nature. The trunks of the 'trees' exhibit various collections that reflect the creative spirit of Hermès. The museum is small but worth to visit! I'm not only enjoyable to look around but also took many pictures there:)

Are you ready? Let's go go go...see what behind the 'trees'!
