Aesop store by Studioilse

Ilse Crawford of Studioilse has designed the first London outlet of Australian skincare brand Aesop.

The store, in Mayfair, features a restored Victorian interior with modern and antique interventions.

Here's some info from Studioilse:

--

“We do not subscribe to claims of anti-ageing, promises of youth and distorted ideals of beauty but offer plant-derived ingredients that
contribute to the positive treatment and maintenance of skin and hair.” - Dennis Paphitis, founder

The first London shop is located in a Victorian Grade II listed mansion block on Mount street in Mayfair.

Studioilse's design of the shop translates the Aesop values through a loving restoration of the historic fabric with modern and clean interventions; original parquet floors left raw with patination, fireplaces reinstated, tall ceilings exposed.

But at its heart sits one grand gesture, a large ceramic circular basin to emphasize the ritual of cleansing. A celebration time, place and quiet beauty.

Consultation service that includes detailed product usage explanations on skin and wellbeing products for men and women.

Design and creative direction: studioilse.
