Cartier Mailan Airport Boutique
We were commissioned by Cartier to create a striking visual centrepiece for their Hainan Airport boutique . Using our signature embroidery technique Circeo — a material with shifting geometry, composed of fabric ribbons wrapped around metal cylinders — we transformed the cylinders into pixels to depict Cartier’s iconic panther. Brought to life by the light passing through them, the surface plays with perspective — alternating between transparency and opacity depending on the viewer’s angle. A symbol of wild elegance and untamed grace, the panther has been a muse for the Maison since its first appearance in 1914.
