Aesop opens in Balmain with respectful reinvention. Created in collaboration with local designer Henry Wilson, the design for Aesop Balmain emerged from an understanding of the area, materials recovered on-site, and the context of setting. Raw sandstone walls, fireplaces and hidden doorways revealed during removal of the former fit-out have been retained and exposed; tinted concrete terrazzo references local mid-century apartment buildings. Pale native timbers and a soft palette harmonise with abundant natural light.
