This dynamic venue pays a multi-faceted, participatory tribute to the beloved silk square.
Pass by the Click and Check Concierge at 151 Bloor Street to join our club where you sign in to receive their membership card (Carré Check) and enter a photobooth where their official portrait will be enhanced with custom filters and graphics (Carré Click).

Conceived by Bali Barret, artistic director of the Hermès women’s universe, the Carré Club is effortlessly adaptable to local members’ interests, attracting all those with an appreciation for the carré. Whereas a Carré-OK singalong setup might feel de rigueur in one city, the Carré Disco and Carré Park skate ramp might pop up in another. Ultimately, this club experience will encourage the carré’s magical harmony of craftmanship, art, heart and heritage as a meaningful and lasting symbol of expression.

Now it’s time to Explore!

Carré Studio is the artistic epicentre. An on-site atelier will provide an authentic setting for carré designers and artisans to create. Members are welcome to interact and engage as this select group of talent create in real time.

Gianpaolo Pagni, whose interests involve appropriating old documents with custom stamps, will stamp directly onto the silk scarves as a new layer of illustration.
