Pomellato Flagship Boutique, Los Angeles & Shanghai
Silk as canvas. Inside the new Pomellato flagship store on Rodeo Drive, Los Angeles, the evocative Rosso Montenapoleone, the brand’s iconic hue, is carefully paired with soft shades of pink throughout the space. The walls are enriched with decorative panels featuring hand-painted and hand-embroidered silk wallpapers crafted by Misha’s artisans, who dedicated more than four hundred hours to the creation of eight bespoke panels
Painting Techniques
This project marks the renewal of our collaboration with Pomellato, following our 2017 partnership in which we developed the Pomellation chain installation dedicated to women. For the new flagship boutiques, our work focused on creating and developing a bespoke artistic concept that translates Pomellato’s identity into a contemporary visual language. We approached silk as a true conceptual medium, designing hand-painted and hand-embroidered panels that reinterpret the brand’s codes with refined abstraction.
Nudo jewel
“The concept reimagines the Nudo jewel as a suspended wisteria that unfolds across the wall and dissolves with lightness,” explain Chiara and Anna Enrico. The work pays homage to the ancient Chinese silk-painting traditions still practiced in rural communities, creating a delicate tribute to this fragile and precious art form.
Chinese artistic heritage
For the Shanghai flagship, the design direction shifts toward a dialogue with Chinese artistic heritage. The concept draws from the aesthetic language of imperial gardens, articulated through delicate gold brushwork that evokes movement, air, and botanical rhythm. This intervention pays homage to the Chinese silk-painting traditions still practiced within rural communities, anchoring the boutique in a cultural continuum where luxury craftsmanship and historical memory converge.
