IT is lovely when other disciplines cross the bridge to write about architecture. Louis Vuitton: Art, Fashion and Architecture just released September 2009 anthologizes the once small luxury luggage house to the ridiculously popular brand we know now after Marc Jacobs joined in 1997. Now what did Louis Vuitton do for architecture? Much of what happens is that logos, motifs and the sort get manipulated to fit new formats. As seen from these finished panels for an exhibition and work in collaboration with Takeshi Murakami. All you can really do is play with the monogram and whatever iteration of the label is popular. I guess that's fine and all. I would then ask another question, How can architecture affect Louis Vuitton?
