Developed by Tadao Ando together with
NeM Architectes and Pierre-Antoine Gatier,
the transformation of the historic Bourse de
Commerce initiates a conversation between
art and architecture, introducing a minima-
listic aesthetic. The main feature of the re-
furbishment is the tall cylindrical concrete
wall, which creates a central gallery below
the 19th-century glass dome.
The interior of the Le Halle Aux Grains re-
staurant was designed by Ronan & Erwan
Bouroullec. Chairs and tables from the Offi-
cina collection were chosen to complement
its sober but cosy atmosphere. Officina
chairs and tables, with their rustic frames,
match perfectly with the historical look of
the building.
