The first flagship store for the Swiss chocolate manufacturer Maison Cailler in Broc, Switzerland, has recently been designed by French architect Mathieu Lehanneur. The armadillo-shaped boutique uses the local traditional ‘tavillon’ style of wooden Swiss shingles. The oblong building has a wedge taken out in front as the boutique’s entrance. If the building isn’t odd or interesting enough, there are always the chocolates within; 5 samples that promise to reveal your “chocolate personality.”
