Apartment Decorated by Gaultier

Stepping into the freshly decorated apartment by Jean-Paul Gaultier at Trocadero in Paris, I felt as if I had been transported into a quixotic dream, complete with a choppy journey through a triage of disparate scenes. In a grey area where expression and aesthetic surely override function and utility, it is nevertheless intriguing to experience the continuously blurring boundaries where fashion and architecture meet.

Each room embodies a different theme that inspires Gaultier. A nautically-striped jersey fabric is stretched sensually over the first room, which gradually diminishes to a blank white canvas.
