Renaissance Paris La Defense Hotel

Virserius Studio completed the second phase of the redesign of the Renaissance Paris La Defense (public areas, event spaces, executive lounge and a new concept for their brasserie) in Summer 2018. The brief for the project was to reflect the La Defense neighborhood and its surroundings through carefully curated art and lighting. This involved a partial renovation of the lobby, removing the existing executive lounge, and creating a destination restaurant. We wanted the hotel to not just be for guests but for it to be a place the public in this busy section of Paris can incorporate into their busy day, whether it’s grabbing a coffee from the brasserie kiosk or a glass of wine on the way home, or meeting on important matters during the day.
