Just on the edge of Le Marais is the concept store Merci, opened by the founders of children’s store Bonpoint (see also after dark section for Grazie restaurant).

Whether you’re looking for an egg timer, a pair of brogues or a watering can, the most design concious example of it will be here for you to purchase. It’s an inspiring exhibition space and concept, lifestyle for sale? I’ll take it, Merci beaucoup.
