| DESIGN NAME: Imperator PRIMARY FUNCTION: Hotel and Restoration INSPIRATION: Our challenge was to magnify the Art Deco spirit, preserve the soul of this mythical building while giving it liveliness and modernising the offering. This project was fascinating. UNIQUE PROPERTIES / PROJECT DESCRIPTION: The imperator is a special building because it is full of history, indeed, established in nineteen twenty nine, when the Paris, Lyon, Marseille railway line opened, the Imperator hotel, with its Art Deco facade, reintroduces its majesty to the world. The envy of Celine Falco, the 5 stars boutique hotel brand co-founder, the creativity of the architecture agency Naco, the work of hundreds of craftsmen, as well as the artists’ works, have brought this extraordinary and iconic hotel back to life. OPERATION / FLOW / INTERACTION: The Imperator is a hotel in south France, it offers a restaurant and a brasserie to eat led by Pierre Gagnaire, a very great French cook three times starred in the Michelin Guide and a wellness area SPA to relax and take care of oneself in addition to the perfectly furnished room spaces.

PRODUCTION / REALIZATION TECHNOLOGY: build by Eiffage company SPECIFICATIONS / TECHNICAL PROPERTIES: 5513 square meters TAGS: Hotel, France, Full oh history, Story, south France, Design, Interior design RESEARCH ABSTRACT: During their research, a few postcards were found on which the old logo could be seen. It will set the tone and became essential to the scenography. The large O and its geometric shape would become one of the visual components of the new interior decoration and has been integrated into the designs of the carpets, the bedroom walls and the bodyguards uniforms. Simultaneously, the elevator, the antique chandelier, the grand staircase and the restored arches, witnesses to the hotels’ glory days, remain faithful to its memory, a subtle reminder of the past, a common theme in the restoration. CHALLENGE: The hardest part of the design activity was to keep the history and the reputation of the building, it was very much followed by the inhabitants of the city because the hotel is mythical, a certain pressure was installed, it was necessary to pay attention to the spirit of the hotel and its history, active research including old postcards for example presenting the hotel have been carefully studied to keep the mythical aspect of the Imperator.
