Concept Design Hotel in Saint Germain des Pres: Hotel des Academies et des Arts
Par webmaster • 12 Mar, 2008 • CatĂ©gorie: Contemporary hotels design, Design hotels, Style hotels Paris •Just a few steps from the Jardin du Luxembourg, opposite the Atelier de la Grande Chaumière, a well-known art school, the Hotel des Academies et des Arts remembers the roaring twenties, when Montparnasse was a magnet for artists. Inspired by the hotel’s past and the history of the neighbourhood, Charlotte and Laurent wanted to revive the Hotel des Academies et des Arts’ artistic heritage by bringing together several artists to create an original backdrop for contemporary works of art.
Sophie de Watrigant and Jérôme Mesnager have invested the place with their artistic imagination. Sophie’s sculptures are dotted around the lobby and the “petit bistrot”, going right up the main staircase, where small figures climbing ladders are suspended in the stairwell. Jérôme Mesnager’s jointed figures are painted directly onto wallpaper which serves as his canvas. Take the lift up to the top floor and admire another of Mesnager’s works as you ascend. A white giant also appears on the red-painted wall of the inner courtyard and can be seen from the ground floor right up to the fifth floor at the Hotel des Academies et des Art in Saint Germain des Pres, Paris.
