Hotel Le Ballu<\/a><\/strong> \u2013 a true designer jewel that eliminates the prevailing clich\u00e9s in the luxury hotel industry and regains its history in a new guise<\/strong> \u2013 stands in the Parisian district, La Nouvelle Ath\u00e8nes, immersed in the monumental elegance of its 19th century neo-classical buildings. An ancient residence built by the figurative painter Charles Wislin in 1891, it was converted into the new SACEM headquarters in 1960, and today it has become the Hotel Le Ballu. For Thomas Vidalenc<\/a><\/strong> \u2013 the architect at the helm of this project, which he dedicated himself to for over two years along with his wife \u2013 renovating this space meant passing on a legacy<\/strong> that is reflected in the way in which the volumes have been treated, in the presence of furniture designs from the 50s and 60s typical of Central and Eastern Europe, in the persistence of wooden structures and in the constructivist touch of the works of Tauba Sarnaka. History<\/strong> that is handed down and reinterpreted in a retro but original manner, bold yet coherent<\/strong> in the overwhelming diversity of shapes, colours, volumes and materials. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Before\nentering the Hotel, the two red and stone facades, one in Flemish style and the\nother in Haussmannian style, catch the guest\u2019s eye. Two different inspirations\nthat seem to anticipate what the traveller will find inside and that fully\nreflect the eclectic soul<\/strong> of this Hotel\nParticulier<\/em><\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Upon\nentering, we find ourselves in the restaurant area, where an atmosphere\nlingers, suspended between forest green and petrol blue walls, mirrored\nceilings with hanging lamps, Danish-style Art\nDeco<\/strong> seating and furnishings and a floor in SM Marble – Nero\nPortoro<\/a><\/strong> with a glossy\nfinish<\/strong>. The choice of this material,\nsigned Santamargherita,<\/strong> in the specific shades and finish, enhances the colours, textures<\/em> and character of the other furnishing accessories<\/strong>,\nthereby creating a surface that leads to a lush patio. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
