Why I Love This Pattern: Landscape gardener and illustrator François Houtin drew inspiration from the botanical world to create a dreamlike interpretation of Leïla Menchari’s Mediterranean garden. Menchari, is celebrated for transforming the windows of the flagship Hermès store in Paris into surreal and theatrical works of art and worked with Hermès for 52 years, from 1961 to 2013. The garden was inspired by one she first discovered in Tunisia at the age of ten, whose beauty influenced her designs for decades. 

From The Hermès Spring-Summer 2014 Seasonal Scarf Booklet: Vines take root in the vast trees, their strange, almost animal blossoms adding to the climate of mystery. Time becomes fluid, impalpable. This kingdom of plants is inhabited by the murmuring wind in the bamboo, by birdsong and the chorus of frogs from the depths of the ponds. Anyone entering this place is touched by its grace and beauty. Do we not say a garden is the image of Paradise?
