昨晚，尼可拉斯·盖斯基尔为路易威登之家的最新一次飞跃来到了喜剧演员鲍勃·霍普和妻子多洛雷斯在棕榈泉的前世寓所。这位艺术总监的第二批邮轮收藏品是在1973年由建筑师约翰·劳特纳设计的现代主义住宅地标的阴影下展出的。

在日渐褪色的加州阳光下，混凝土冲天炉盘旋在周围的沙漠景观上，俯瞰着科切拉谷和圣贾辛托山脉。就像太空船和火山的混合体一样，该遗址起伏的屋顶上有一个精确的圆形切口，展示了这位建筑师的技术能力，同时也让蓝色的沙漠和繁星的夜空穿透了房屋的中央庭院。

这座类似UFO的建筑一直是盖斯基尔的设计灵感，因为他第一次关注这个世界之外的建筑。(这套房子目前也在市场上，售价约为3300万英镑。)路易威登(LouisVuitton)董事长兼首席执行官迈克尔·伯克(MichaelBurke)解释说，这一产业展示了一种与我们相似的方式，它首先具有创造性。

这种威严的、干净利落的环境立刻诱使客人进入度假模式-棕榈泉，当然，也是20世纪50至70年代美国梦成功的象征。几十年来，盖斯基尔的设计也受到了表演者大卫·鲍伊(David Bowie)1983年英国恐怖片“饥饿”(The Hunger)的启发，该片与凯瑟琳·德涅夫(Catherine Deneuve)(事实上，这位法国女演员坐在节目的前排)一起主演。

这批收藏品本身是由精湛的工艺技术推动的，它展现了一种未来派的波西米亚精神，由漫长而流畅的边线所主导-其浪漫之情因场馆与自然世界的交叉而进一步放大。展览的开场吊带和链印来自德国艺术家Urs Fischer的“问题画”系列，而房子的PetiteMalle后备箱离合器则用棕榈叶进行庆祝更新，并由那些在铺面露台上穿高顶运动鞋、艺妓风格的翻盖拖鞋或适当的未来派的Perspex高跟鞋的模特携带。总之，这所房子比它的“旅行艺术”标语更黯然失色。

The UFO-like building has been a design inspiration for Ghesquière since he first laid eyes on the out-of-this-world structure. 'This estate demonstrates an approach that mirrors our own,' explained Louis Vuitton chairman and chief executive officer Michael Burke, 'it is creative above all.' Courtesy of Louis Vuitton

The commanding arid setting instantly coaxed guests into resort mode - Palm Spings, of course, being the spot that came to symbolise the success of the American dream during the 1950s - 1970s. These are decades that also couched Ghesquière's designs, which were inspired by showman David Bowie's 1983 British horror film 'The Hunger'. Courtesy of Louis Vuitton

The collection itself was fuelled by exquisite craft techniques that manifested a futuristic yet bohemian spirit, dominated by long, fluid hemlines - the romance of which was further magnified by the venue's crossing of the built with the natural world. Courtesy of Louis Vuitton

The show's opening harnesses and chain prints were derived from German artist Urs Fischer's 'Problem Painting' series, while the house's Petite Malle trunk clutch was festively updated with palm fronds, and carried by models who sported high-top sneakers, Geisha-style flip-flops or suitably futuristic Perspex-heeled booties around the paved terrace.

All told, Ghesquière more than eclipsed the house's 'art of travel' tagline. Courtesy of Louis Vuitton

Resembling a hybrid between a space ship and a volcano, the site's undulating roof features a precise circular cutout that illustrates the architect's technical prowess. Photography: Brian Thomas Jones

It also allows both the blue desert and starry night sky to penetrate the home's central courtyard

The Hope's home is currently on the market for around £33 million
