Executive domesticity in Paris?


Perigot, Paris, originally uploaded by Gordon Gerard McLean.

The PERIGOT brand was created in 1995 and is today the leader of the French hardware store design concept. Focusing on a defined visual identity, Frederic Perigot redesigns household utensils according to their functions. These utilitarian objects find their place in the kitchen and bathroom, as well as being useful for travel and for pleasure. Every product identified with the PERIGOT trademark is based on an aesthetic ideal, both practical and affordable. This sign was outside the entrance of PERIGOT's store... in the basement of the Louvre.
