Dutch contemporary artist Levi van Veluw has created the inaugural window displays for Hermès’ new RDAI-designed Stockholm location at Nordiska Kompaniet, a heritage-listed department store.

The Stockholm project, which interprets the world of the artist as a craftsman through a mechanical sculpture, is van Veluw’s fifth collaboration with the luxury brand. We spoke with the artist about his long-standing relationship with Hermès, how he blends his creative vision with that of the company and the way he hopes passersby experience the windows, a spatial typology Hermès has long been champion of.
