New Aesop beauty store features twine ceiling


Cult 4 fave Australian beauty brand Aesop is going rough and ready in its new Singapore store, with kilometres of coconut-husk string suspended from the ceiling.

The material is a regional product, and its use here was inspired by the raw twine used to wrap the brand’s gift boxes.
‘The idea is to work with a sombre material palette in an unexpected way,’ says Aesop director Dennis Paphitis, who worked with Melbourne architects March Studio to design the space.
