In the illustrious setting of the Maison Chopard, at 1 Place Vendôme, a captivating transformation has taken place, orchestrated by the interior architecture firm Pierre-Yves Rochon PYR Design. This legendary mansion, built between 1718 and 1723, has undergone a meticulous facelift that preserves its authenticity and historical significance, making it one of the capital’s most sought-after luxury destinations.
Pierre-Yves Rochon’s global reputation shines through as the company breathes new life into this iconic structure, transcending conventional hotel standards. Rather than simply offering accommodation, this private residence by Chopard is a testament to meticulous design that enhances the overall guest experience. It presents itself as a captivating journey through different eras and styles, immersing visitors in the rich history of Louis-Ulysse Chopard, the founder of the House of Chopard, with the overriding objective of restoring the mansion to its golden age.
L’approche distinctive de PYR préconise la fusion des styles dans les espaces publics et les chambres privées, créant ainsi un mélange homogène qui fait écho à la grandeur du passé. L’hôtel particulier se présente comme une maison bourgeoise, avec une entrée qui rend hommage à l’architecture du XVIIIe siècle, avec des cabochons de marbre noir, des murs en pierre naturelle et une cheminée monumentale. Le réaménagement de PYR introduit un hall à la fois grandiose et accueillant sur deux niveaux, orné de rampes en fer forgé, qui invite les visiteurs à explorer les différents étages et à découvrir l’opulence qui se cache dans chaque détail.

In close cooperation with Maurice Renoma, renowned stylist in the Ready-to-wear industry and recognized for his talents as a photographer, the Ateliers Philippe Coudray have created a brand new collection of seats, serving as cases for the photos of the designer.
The collection has expanded thanks to the new themes addressed by Maurice Renoma through his photographs (Mythologie, Les Fables, Les 4 saisons, Street Art).
Classically inspired, these seats differ from other seats by the treatment of photos on a artificial leather covering.
A range of original patinas has been created especially for this collection. Each creation is designed by Maurice Renoma, numbered and limited to 50 copies.
The Renoma collection is currently available for purchase at the Boutique Renoma Paris, The French Apartement Gallery showroom in Los Angeles and the Ateliers Philippe Coudray, and can be viewed at the following addresses: www.renomahotel.com – www.renoma-cafe-gallery.com –
