Designed in collaboration with a constantly revolving roster of some of the world’s most renowned designers, the French luxury house’s Objets Nomades started in 2012 as a range of travel-inspired furniture reflecting the brand’s travel DNA and leatherworking know-how.
Now, that ethos has expanded to include Les Petit Nomades, a small line of seven, smaller (and more accessible) home decor items created by the same four designers behind this year’s Objets Nomades collection.

Each piece marries the signature sensibility of the maker and the hallmarks of a Vuitton-made product, like the use of the brand’s Nomade leather and contrast stitching.
Les Petits Nomades is available from this month onwards, only at LV’s Marina Bay Sands Island Maison. Prices: $485-$14,200.

Campana Brothers' Tropicalist Vase
image
For this Tropicalist Vase by Brazilian design duo, the Campana Brothers, 176 pieces of two-toned, leather-covered metal “petals” were carefully put together. This was inspired by the South American quesnelia and bromeliad flowers. The makers say: “Our father was an agronomist, and we were surrounded by beautiful plants [when we were growing up]. In this collection, we wanted to celebrate the preciousness of nature and send a signal of respect to one of the most important aspects of our planet.”
This story was first published in the October 2018 issue of Her World.
