The storage shelves and counter are also crafted from bleached wood, and are matched by leather-wrapped flooring. A wall-suspended brass basin and a Louis Poulsen light fixture in a similar material heighten the artisanal vibe of the retail space. Aesop’s newest outlet stocks the brand’s full range of hair, body and skincare products.
