Look Out Hermes – Here Comes Richard Woods

Jeffrey Deitch has commissioned British artist Richard Woods to bedeck his Los Angeles pad with a Tudor style flourish. (Click here to see what he concocted for Adam Lindemann in the Catskills).

Thanks to Moss, the Soho design mecca, we can all have a little piece of Woods.

Moss is retailing a primary-hued  faux-wood paneling Logo No. 73 scarf, in an edition of 100. The 43-inch square silk scarf is priced $345.

Installation artist Richard Woods is best known for the homes, sites and even Lever House lobby he transforms with his bold, ironic, often historically derived patterns.

Woods cloaked the guard house at Manhattan’s City Hall Park with painted red-brick fibreboard during the summer of 2009, and the former Deitch Project’s storefront in 2002. He is represented by Perry Rubenstein Gallery.
