RH, the American luxury home furnishings brand, has opened its highly anticipated Paris flagship, marking a major milestone in the company’s European expansion strategy.
Located on the Avenue des Champs-Élysées, the “Mona Lisa” gallery was designed by Foster + Partners, transforming a historic building into a multi-level lifestyle destination that blends retail, design, and hospitality.
Visitors enter through an 18-foot gilded entrance before discovering interiors that reflect the Vitruvian principles of balance, symmetry, and proportion. The space houses a glass-enclosed design studio and a rooftop restaurant overlooking the Eiffel Tower, encapsulating RH’s vision of redefining retail as an experiential and architectural statement.
Despite a challenging U.S. housing market, RH continues to show resilience. In its Q1 2025 earnings report, the company recorded $814 million in revenue, up 11.97% year-over-year, with a 12-month total of $3.27 billion.
Gary Friedman, RH’s Chairman and CEO — who began his career at Gap before leading RH’s transformation — attributes the brand’s sustained growth to “adaptation and innovation,” including supply chain diversification and proactive responses to global tariff shifts.
The Paris flagship represents just the beginning of RH’s European journey. The company is set to open a London Mayfair gallery in spring 2026, followed by an RH Milan flagship during Milan Design Week, further cementing its position in the global luxury design market.
