Highsnobiety's Fenn O'Meally stopped by Byredo's flagship store in London to meet brand founder Ben Gorham and find out how he built one of the most sought-after perfume brands.

At 6 foot 5 inches, Gorham looks every bit the former pro basketball player, having left the game behind to go to art school. While studying, he discovered a fascination with scents and particularly how they can stir different memories within people.

In other design news, we spoke to Virgil Abloh about breaking barriers and questioning everything.
