Recto

Just wanted to drop by and check out the new Recto Flagship Store in Hannam-dong.

Honestly, I don’t shop much at Recto, so I wasn’t really into the clothing. But since there were pieces by artist Woo-Rim Kang in the showroom, I decided to check it out like I was visiting an art gallery.

Recto just relocated a new flagship store to this location.

They collaborated with artist Woo-Rim Kang, who is quite famous for his furniture (Art Furniture). Maybe that's why the Recto clothes in the showroom look even more stunning.

Like a gallery display, the lighting and mirrors create an aesthetically pleasing space.

Everything from the lighting to the tables and chairs had such lovely curves.

I missed this artist Woo-Rim Kang's solo exhibition last year, but it's awesome to check out his work here at the Recto showroom.

I wear men's clothes a lot, so I tried on the smallest size (S) and rolled up the sleeves twice, but they were still way too long, like a monkey's arms, so I just left them.

The whole building was turned into a flagship store, which meant they could set up an outdoor area like a garden. The scenery was so gorgeous that I snapped a ton of photos right away.

How are brands these days making their showrooms look so good? They're seriously brilliant.

This wooden table and the candle holders are more than just furniture; they're like little pieces of art on their own. The Recto showroom design is seriously impressive.
