Text description provided by the architects.

Derived from the reconfiguration of an existing hotel, the building has been extensively renovated while preserving its structure.

This new hotel was conceived as a tranquil retreat in the heart of the city, with an enlarged garden area and improved accessibility.

One of the main objectives was to offer a life beyond the guestrooms, designed as a journey.

On the garden side, a large glass roof spanning the width of the plot provides an immersive experience from the restaurant - « Golden Poppy » by Dominique Crenn - in a bucolic landscape.

The completely redesigned urban silhouette is expressed through a signature façade, designed as a luminous filter between the rooms and the street.

The materiality of the façade, crafted from pre-patinated gray-green zinc, pays homage to the Parisian landscape.
