Paavo Tynell is often called "the man who illuminated Finland." And while that may sound like an exaggeration, take a stroll through Helsinki and you'll see the designer's distinctive fixtures all around town-chandeliers in the Central Railway Station; sconces, table lamps, and more in the Original Sokos Hotel Vaakuna. But it was only when Tynell came to New York City, in 1948, that he and his lights began to plot world domination.

Elements of Style - Charlotte Macaux Perelman and Alexis Fabry celebrate 10 years of artistic exploration at Hermès

Last March, Hermès brought its home universe to life in eye-popping fashion at a one-night-only extravaganza staged at the Barker Hangar in Santa Monica. The lavish performance featured dozens of dancers showcasing the French luxury house's furniture, tableware, textiles, and decorative objects in elaborately choreographed vignettes that seemed to riff on the unboxing ritual so popular on social media-a supersized spectacle of conjuring magic from ordinary crates. The event also coincided with the 10th anniversary of Charlotte Macaux Perelman and Alexis Fabry's tenure as artistic directors of the Hermès home division.
