HERMÈS RIVE GAUCHE / RDAI

Posted in Architecture - Interior design by Kseniya SHkroban

On a much less literal level, most of the architectural elements that have been added are fluid, supple and light.

They encourage movement, as free and easy as a body in water.

On the ground floor, for example, the walls form long, wavy curves.

Sometimes they change shape to accommodate display cases or shelves, or to allow a moulded bench to emerge.

To give another example, the main staircase, created to link the ground floor and the lower level (the pool level), spreads like a sloping ribbon.

The movement is natural, like a cascade.

And the huts twist and turn as they rise up towards the light.

We want this architectural intervention to be at once very decisive and very gentle and enfolding.
