Parisian colour

Oh dear, the rains and the wind (!) of winter have arrived in Kolding, Denmark. But look what bright idea is going up in Paris to offset the darkness of winter.

from the cool hunter : Two prominent Parisian retail facades are getting the Jean-Charles de Castelbajac treatment.

Jean-Charles de Castelbajac’s second Holiday facade is at the top of Champs Elysée, at Publicis Drugstore, established in 1958 and located on the site of the famed Astoria Hotel. The complex now houses two restaurants and several specialty shops, including a high-end grocery store. From November 20 to January 20, the building will be covered with enormous color glass panels and the inside will have a similar color-rich treatment with the theme “Pop your X-mas”. - Tuija Seipell
