MCM's Munich flagship debuts pet zoo

MCM has opened its latest flagship boutique in the German luxury brand’s hometown of Munich – introducing a zoo, complete with rabbits, dogs and lions. All the animals are crafted from the brand’s signature Cognac Visetos monogram material.

The MCM Zoo features a theatrical collection of the brand's latest pet figurines, in both the Cognac Visetos material and other colours. Seeking to evoke paradise, the new space was designed “a secret garden of style”, according to the brand.



Located on the neoclassic Brienner Straße, the 150sq m flagship is MCM’s the third major launch in Germany. It has a classic-meets-contemporary ambience, fusing German heritage with contemporary European culture, and gives a firm nod to the brand’s birthplace in the heart of Bavaria. 

The new boutique features a golden facade boasting a “decadent aesthetic”, according to the brand, with contemporary, clean lines, subtle, neutral tones and touches of tradition, inspired by MCM’s signature brass plate designs.

The gold-themed interior design

The interior design allows for sweeping views throughout the exhibition panels, offering a variety of spatial experiences which aims to give a unique character to each of the different product ranges on display.

Munich's neoclassical Brienner Straße is one of four royal avenues and was constructed from 1812 onwards. The avenue is named after the Battle of Brienne, fought in 1814.
