Located at the ground floor of Kingdom Center in Riyadh, Repossi unveils a modern and minimalistic venue with Maison’s new concept design.

Maison Repossi, the Place Vendôme jeweller founded in 1957, unveils its new boutique concept paying homage to the emblematic aesthetic codes of the Maison. The concept will initially be deployed in the Middle East with the opening of two new boutiques by the end of the year in Riyadh (Saudi Arabia) and Abu Dhabi, as well as the renovation of its flagship store in the Dubai Mall.
The taut lines, a guiding thread of the Repossi architectural project.
Celebrating design in all its forms, Repossi draws its inspiration from Japanese minimalism and artistic movements such as Bauhaus or the visionary architecture of Oscar Niemeyer and Tadao Ando, manifesting its dedication to creativity and artistic expression.

The minimalism is symbolised by a travertine facade with taut lines, punctuated by a simple line of lacquered color, subtly paying homage to the Maison’s aesthetics, notably the signature bar of the ‘Serti sur Vide’ collection as well as the lacquer of the iconic ‘Berbere Chromatic’ ring. Every Maison’s destination is personalized with a unique color : green for the Middle East, and blue for the United States.

Designed as a jewelry box.

This new concept has been designed to feel as though clients are inside a jewelry box, where every detail is a work of art in itself. Everything is handcrafted, just like the Maison’s jewelry pieces themselves.
The color palette, dominated by Greige and notably by a succession of layers of textured marmorino, recalls the timeless elegance of Repossi’s jewelry box, while stacking and asymmetry, two fundamental concepts in Repossi jewelry, come to life through a play of layering and textures on the walls, reflecting the signature stacking characteristics of Repossi’s Antifer rings.

For the Middle East, the new design concept is punctuated with green; inspired by the shades of emerald – an emblematic gemstone of the Maison – highlighted by a subtle interplay of lines that extend throughout the interior and exterior of the boutique. Crafted with the expertise of a Master Lacquerer, these canvases pay particular tribute to the Berbere Chromatic collection.

In the main space, a panel of green-stained wood echoes Flavin Judd’s concept from the Repossi flagship store in Monaco, offering a dynamic texture that creates an interplay of materials and colors. The introduction of cherry wood, in reference to Donald Judd’s furniture designs, contrast with mineral materials to create a warm and welcoming atmosphere.

Moreover, the design of the space is imbued with distinctive elements from the iconic Repossi boutique at Place Vendôme, particularly through the reinterpretation of an asymmetrical display case designed by Rem Koolhaas, a veritable totem of the Masion’s architectural environment.

The understated opulence of the space echoes the minimalist jewelry creations and embodies the very essence of Maison Repossi: sophistication in simplicity and commitment to excellence.

The store will feature Maison’s iconic collections such as Antifer, Serti sur Vide and Berbere, as well as a selection of exclusive High Jewellery pieces including iconic Blast and Brevis collections.
