Description

Grandes Almacenes La Samaritaine

This project is the renovation of La Samaritaine, a mid-19th century grand magasin (department store) in Paris. The site is of great historical significance and the footprint of the building extends from Rue de Rivoli to the Quai du Louvre, overlooking the Seine River. Our design creates a Passage de La Samaritaine, a new street with social and commercial activities that runs through the length of the existing building. It connects three full-height courtyards, one existing and two new.
