Casa Loewe Seoul Opens: A Collector’s Home Where Art and Craft Coexist

In Cheongdam-dong, Seoul, the first standalone store in Korea, ‘Casa Loewe Seoul’ has opened its doors. Beyond a simple shopping space, this place is a cultural space that fully embodies Loewe’s creativity and aesthetics, designed under the concept of a ‘Collector’s Home’ where fashion, art, craft, and design furniture harmoniously coexist.

The Aesthetics of a New Space Proposed by a Fashion Brand

Casa Loewe Seoul spans three floors, encompassing the brand’s entire product range, including womenswear, menswear, bags, shoes, accessories, eyewear, and home fragrances. Curated by Loewe’s creative director Jonathan Anderson, this space is noted for its Spanish handcrafted ceramic tile facade and sculptural architectural beauty, completed with designs that harmonize artistic inspiration and natural materials.

Artworks Inside Casa Loewe

 

The interior of the store is designed to resemble a gallery. The work ‘Source of Creation’ by Japanese artist Tanabe Chikunsai IV is a bamboo sculpture that encompasses the entire space, symbolizing the fusion of fashion and art.

Also on display are the award-winning works from the Craft Prize hosted by the Loewe Foundation. These include ‘Metanoia’ by ceramic artist Inazaki Eriko, ‘A Time for Sincerity’ by Korean artist Jeong Dahye, and ‘Cocoon Top Series’ by Lee Young-soon.

Furniture, Design Objects, and Details

 

Inside, you will find pieces such as Gerrit Thomas Rietveld’s Steltman chair, George Nakashima’s Conoid chair, and Loewe’s Puffer bench, alongside antique ceramics, tapestries, and burnt wood podiums.
