The Moncler flagship store on Via Montenapoleone stands out as a major destination; Gilles&Boissier draw their inspiration from the “Genius Loci” and the classic, rationalist codes of the 1930s and 1940s. French-style wood paneling interacts with the Risseu, a traditional technique involving the arrangement of water-polished pebbles in geometric patterns. Long used in the caves and lakeside villas of Lombardy, this remarkable craftsmanship adorns the floors and walls here with small pebbles.
These references coexist with decidedly contemporary elements, notably a sculptural metal staircase.
