A Paris Hotel's Rebirth

A Grande Dame of Paris hotels has closed for a total refurbishment but not before going out in style. Belgian designer and artist Arne Quinze created a temporary installation at five-star Parisian hotel Le Royal Monceau last month, before the hotel’s closure for a year-long make-over by Phillipe Starck. The art event entitled, "Rebirth," took place on June 26th. For more pictures and information visit Dezeen ,one of my favorite design sites.
