The Chanel Contemporary Art Container – a collapsible, futuristic pavilion – is a celebration of Chanel’s cultural importance and displays the brand’s heritage in a new way.

Chanel commissioned fifteen internationally renowned contemporary artists to create works inspired by the iconic quilted Chanel 2.55 shoulder bag which was originally introduced by Coco Chanel in February 1955.

The form of the Chanel Pavilion is a celebration of the iconic work of Chanel, unmistakable for its smooth layering of exquisite details that together create an elegant, cohesive whole.

The resulting structure is very much tied to that original inspiration—elegant, functional, and versatile both in its overall structure and detail.
