Why go
The interior is the attraction: slender columns, curved balconies and filtered daylight create an unusually open vertical space behind a historic façade. Books and design goods keep it active rather than museum-like. Visit for architecture and browsing, but remember that it is a functioning shop where circulation and respectful photography matter.
What to look for
- White galleries curve around a tall central atrium beneath a glazed roof.
- Restored structure and contemporary fittings create a clear old-and-new contrast.
Useful to know
- Visit early if you want to study the architecture without dense crowds.
- Keep aisles clear and follow current photography rules inside the shop.
