Mahjong, backgammon, and Macanese charm converge at Hermès’ newly expanded store in the Four Seasons Macau.  

There’s an unmistakable je ne sais quoi when you walk into a Hermès store—something instantly recognisable yet uniquely enchanting. At the newly expanded Hermès store in the Four Seasons Macau, this charm takes on a distinctly Macanese twist, blending local culture with the house’s signature elegance.  

First opened in 2008, the reimagined boutique, designed by RDAI, brings together Hermès’ sixteen métiers in a space that captures the vibrant, playful spirit of Macau.  

From the outside, the store commands attention with its jade-toned ceramic façade. The rounded-edge bricks evoke the tiles of a mahjong set, reflecting the energy and vibrancy of its surroundings. Large, inviting windows, framed by sliding triangular panels, punctuate the exterior, offering a glimpse of the treasures within.  

Step inside, and you’re greeted by a luminous, earthy interior that feels both grounded and elegant. A palette of greens, ambers, and ochres flows seamlessly through the space, complemented by bespoke details like terrazzo flooring flecked with jewel tones.  

The store’s layout is a journey in itself. The iconic Faubourg mosaic anchors the women’s silk and home collections, while bespoke chequerboard carpets define areas dedicated to men’s silk, fashion jewellery, beauty, and perfume.  

Further inside, the watches and jewellery salon exudes intimacy, with shimmering lacquered green walls creating a sophisticated cocoon. Equestrian and leather goods collections are displayed on dark cherrywood shelves, framed by backgammon-inspired diamond panels.  

At the rear, a spacious section showcases women’s ready-to-wear and shoes, while men’s ready-to-wear and shoes are housed to the left, complete with fitting rooms and a private salon.  

The design of the store is not just a celebration of Hermès’ craftsmanship but also a tribute to Macau’s rich culture. Subtle nods to classic games like mahjong and backgammon infuse the space with playful energy. Hermès’ iconic ex-libris and Grecques lighting add timeless sophistication, while curated art pieces bring depth and character to the decor.  

Art enthusiasts will appreciate the inclusion of seven botanical plates from Édouard Godard’s "Revue Horticole", depicting exotic flowers in vivid detail. Plates of proud horses from Johann Elias Ridinger’s "Description du cheval selon ses poils principaux" pay homage to Hermès’ equestrian heritage. Meanwhile, Douglas Lance Gibson’s "Esi Ni Daimani"—a striking photograph of a game card in a domestic setting—ties the store’s playful design theme to Macau’s entertainment traditions.
