Before stepping down from Maison Martin Margiela, the reclusive designer launched a collection of furniture and “white objects” for the home, like this embroidered calendar. You can't see the dates but, but who uses calenders anymore, anyway? - think of it as braille art.
Mr Margiela also designed the Suite Ile aux Oiseaux at Les Sources de Caudalie near Bordeaux.
The hotel and spa, opened 10 years ago by the winemaking family, tapped Maison Martin Margiela to design its signature suite. The freestanding cabana is perched on a pond in the château. For 650 euros a night and up (a special package includes “a gift signed by Maison Martin Margiela” — perhaps one of the Maison’s new wine-bottle lamps?), guests can retreat to the chambre Margiela between spa treatments. The décor is classic Margiela, with its white-on-white-on-gray playfullness: 12 white pillows are stitched to a white wall to form a headboard. The wallpaper is printed to look like the ghostly walls of a Haussman apartment.
