Last December, Officine Générale's international expansion took me on an almost round-the-world trip in the space of two weeks I traveled to Seoul and then Tokyo before heading to Los Angeles and back to Paris via New York.
An intense, fast-paced, varied, enriching and inspiring business expedition. In each of the megacities I visited, I drew, recorded and listened.
A multicultural immersion that allows me to assess our lifestyles.
I see travel as an opportunity, even when it's strictly for business. Each time, I realize how lucky I have been to live in Paris, the City of Light, for the past thirty years, whose streets, architecture, beauty, atmosphere and people never cease to inspire me.
Paris is my home port, my haven of peace, despite the noise, the gray skies, the pollution, the horns... This Autumn-Winter 2024 collection is entirely dedicated to it, Paris will always be Paris.
Thank you
