The triangular 19th-century building on Rue du Louvre, at the heart
of Paris’s 1st arrondissement, was renovated in 2017 by Studios
Architecture.
Their project involved restoration work on the exterior and alterations
to the interior to make it suitable for commercial use.
The French lighting design studio Aartill was responsible for the
lighting and, for the exterior, chose 139 Lyss 1.0 outdoor projectors in
a grey finish, installed at the base of all the building’s windows. The
fixtures’ 20°x180° satin optics project a beam along the inside of the
cornices, outlining the profile of the windows and lending warmth to
the iconic stone facade.
