Story about the Design:
Lettres Équestres brings the illustrated trade catalogues of the nineteenth century into the world of Hermès silk and cashmere. Drawing on the Émile Hermès collection, the design imagines a secret language hidden within equestrian equipment. Harness forms become a graphic alphabet, inviting the eye to move between decorative detail and the letters of the house name. Vermilion red, blue and beige give this interpretation a lively yet balanced palette.
Artist's Story:
The design is attributed to Hermès' internal creative team rather than a confirmed individual artist. Within the maison, Studio Dessins brings together graphic designers, art directors and specialists who develop drawings for different objects and formats. Its work also involves preserving and revisiting the house's extensive design archive, creating a continuing conversation between historical imagery and contemporary graphic expression.
