ESPACE RÉAUMUR

450Sqm

This building, constructed in 1898 by Albert Walwein (1851-1916), the winner of the Paris City facade competition, is part of a series of remarkable buildings on Réaumur Street. Just outside Sentier Metro Station, this building protrudes like the prow of a ship.

Window

The façade of this exceptional corner store consists of two entrances and 11 stainless steel windows from the 1970s, totaling a frontage of approximately 30 meters in length. It comprises a ground floor of 200 square meters capable of accommodating 291 people and a basement of 240 square meters.

The commercial basement, with a capacity for 100 people, is accessible to the public through two staircases and an elevator.

Ground Floor

Our approach was to renovate the exterior to match the original design and preserve its character. The interior has been renovated in harmony with the stainless steel elements of the storefront and around the 1970s stainless steel spiral staircase, a true centerpiece of this space.

It includes a ground floor of 200 square meters capable of accommodating 200 people and a basement of 240 square meters. The commercial basement, with a capacity for 100 people, is accessible to the public through two staircases and an elevator.

Entrance

The marble floor on the ground floor has been restored to its former glory. The Eiffel structures have been maximally exposed to bring back the splendor of this iconic store.

The light streaming in through the multitude of windows is enhanced by a ceiling height of over 4 meters on both the ground floor and the basement.

Stairs

Professional lighting, featuring powerful directional spotlights along with vintage pieces, allows for high-quality presentation of the showcased artworks and products.
