As Artistic Director Pierre-Alexis Dumas says, “Playing means being together. Play is movement, freedom, imagination, fantasy, lightness… and the horse is our first companion in the playground of creation,” (via L’Officiel USA).
The best part? This escape room of exquisite design and storytelling is free for all to enjoy because, as Hermès U.S. President Diane Mahady put it, “We want people to just laugh for an hour for escapism. Nothing is for sale. It’s just a free experience to share the playful nature of the brand.” (source: L’Officiel USA).
