The neighbourhood
Seductive, romantic and historic, Paris is an extraordinary fusion of old world energy and everything new.
One of the most celebrated promenades in the world, the Champs-Élysées is as vibrant as it is fashionable. In 1998, Louis Vuitton had a glorious return to the famed avenue, opening a beautiful Maison, which, at the time, was the largest in the world.
The façade
The dome of the Maison's Art Deco façade rises high above avenue Champs-Élysées. Listed as a Historical Monument, dating from 1914, the building has only improved with age.
The interior
In a sublimation of the very notion of floors, a generous ascending spiral physically sweeps strollers up from the famous avenue to continue their journey in the universe of the brand.
A 20-meter-high atrium from which some 1,900 stems of polished steel descend and diffract light recalls the sparkling domes of the famous Lalique fountains that decorate the avenue outside.
Brass-plated rings interweave to generate screen walls which recreate the emblematic elements of the monogram.
