John Galliano Rue Des Archives Paris [75] JOHN GALLIANO RUE DES ARCHIVES PARIS [75] FRANKLIN AZZI PRESS KIT CONTENTS FOREWORD 5 FACADE DESIGN 8 A BOUTIQUE WITH AN APARTMENT ATMOSPHERE 10 RICHNESS OF MATERIALS AND SHADES 12 DOMESTICATING THE PREMISES’ HISTORY 16 TECHNICAL SHEET 21 PRESS KIT 23 FRANKLIN AZZI PORTRAIT ICONOGRAPHY AVAILABLE TO THE PRESS 3 PRESS RELEASE FOREWORD This fall, the Maison John Galliano opened its new luxury boutique located at the intersection of rue des Archives and rue Sainte-Croix de la Bretonnerie, and designed by Franklin Azzi in collaboration with the Atelier Franck Durand. The project addressed a twofold challenge for the architect: to make the best use of the emblematic urban context of the Marais, and to renew the luxury brand. Franklin Azzi is anything but a beginner, since fashion designers such as Christophe Lemaire, Isabel Marant, Jérôme Dreyfuss, Bali Barret, and Lacoste have already entrusted him with the conception of their stores. But here, the way he revisits the use of noble materials to meet the high standards of fashion luxury, differs from earlier projects. 5 FRANKLIN AZZI FACADE DESIGN A hair salon previously occupied the premises. The existing facade design was far too absent. Franklin Azzi clads it with a black-lacquered wood mantle piece which is inspired in large part by neo-Victorian molding fashions: an idea both in accordance with Galliano’s identity, and in agreement with the requests of ABF (Architectes des Bâtiments de France) authorities. The wooden joints, edges and corners of the facade elements are decorated with moldings. Brass-inlay signs generously adorn the upper frieze and lower window-frames, while the fabric blinds are elegantly embroidered with the brand’s signature. Strongly announcing a traditional London-style architecture, this new store appears as a salient feature within the more typical Haussmann-style buildings of the surroundings, evoking the mystery it preserves precisely because of that contrast. 8 FRANKLIN AZZI A BOUTIQUE WITH AN APARTMENT ATMOSPHERE The boutique was envisioned as an apartment, thus given an intimate atmosphere. Spaces are motley, designed with eclectic influences. According to Franklin Azzi: « This project is very representative of how architects and designers of my generation have to cope with a heritage of hybrid cultures and inspirations. It is like a ‘cadavre exquis’ of insights: the neo-Victorian facade, the sixties-style interiors with carpeted floors and vintage chairs, Gio Ponti’s accordion wall direct citation, contemporary poured concrete floor, and pastiche classical plaster cornices... » 10 FRANKLIN AZZI RICHNESS OF MATERIALS AND SHADES Notwithstanding this imbrication of periods and styles, this project is also characterized by the richness and abundance of the materials used. The interior ‘shell’ is treated with a minimalism touch, adopting a color-chart of smooth whites and vibrant tones of grey that are to be found in: the wall coating, the concrete floors, the plaster cornices and the linen cloth of the sliding partition walls. The edges and corners are crimped with brass, an alloy of copper and zinc also to be find in the 1960’s lamps hunted at the Paul Bert flea-market. The bespoke furniture is in stained oak: the choice of plain and bare wood surfaces, simply shaped, enables to assert the sole function of the furniture which is to display the garments and accessories. The fitting rooms are lined with glimmering carpeting, rose quartz and amber for women, blue gravel for men. Enameled lava stone decorates one of the walls and some shelves, discreetly indicating the celadon green shades space, also present in the leather covering the counter. This richness and handling of materials embodies the extent of the summoned craftsmen’s skills and expertise. For the first time, Franklin Azzi, customarily loyal to minimalism, uses an extended range of colors, tempered with the matter they imbue in a refined way. 12 FRANKLIN AZZI DOMESTICATING THE PREMISES’ HISTORY The existing space needed to be revisited: lack of a decent facade, of brightness, and of proper distribution. During the demolition works, the architect discovers three typically Parisian cast-iron poles which capitals he uncovers, and disposes of existing partitions to provide more light and better visibility. Where a rear window was sealed off, it is reopened and equipped with wired glass, just to let the light through. The new distribution is clear: accessories, jewelry and leatherwork range at the entrance, and then women’s wear on the left, men’s wear on the right, children’s wear at the center along with the counter. Racks made of thin steel tubes are anchored to the ground, defining the customer’s movements. Great linen cloth sliding partition walls, referring to Gio Ponti’s accordion wall, allows defining the spaces differently when needed, varying under the circumstances. For instance, the evening dresses salon can be totally isolated from both the rest of the boutique and from the view of the passersby, for more intimacy and comfort. These biases seek to provide a domestic setting for the project, symbolizing the renewal of the Maison John Galliano, but also the premises’ history. Franklin Azzi is once again showing his determination to anchor a part of modernity into cultural heritage. This contrast between the interior and the facade design enables him to update the high standards of luxury. The latter is less to be found in ostentation, but more in the materials richness and conception of the architecture project. 16 17 PRESS RELEASE TECHNICAL SHEET CLIENT SURFACE AREA LVMH 130 m2 + 110 m2 of storage PROJECT MANAGEMENT CALENDAR Architect: Franklin Azzi Design studies : 2016 Artistic direction: Franck Durand Completion : 2016 PROGRAMME LOCATION Boutique 30, rue des Archives, 75004 Paris, France COMMAND CREDITS Privée Franklin Azzi Alexandre Tabaste 21 FRANKLIN AZZI PRESS RELEASE PRESS KIT 22 23 FRANKLIN AZZI PRESS KIT PORTRAIT From Tokyo to Los Angeles, via Beijing and Paris, Franklin Azzi breaks down In 2016, Franklin Azzi signs in the Marais the new John Galliano shop the boundaries between architecture, interior design and design. for LVMH, a project representing the hybrid heritage of architects and designers of his generation.

  • Archives in France: the New Legislation of 1979
    Archives in France: The New Legislation of 1979 The main features of the organization of archives in France go back to the end of the eighteenth century. When, from 1789 to 1793, the revolutionary govern- ment suppressed virtually all the existing political, administrative, judicial and ecclesiastical systems of the ancient monarch, it became necessary to make ar- rangements for the archives of all the suppressed bodies and establishments. As early as 29 July 1789-in the very first weeks of the Revolution, fourteen days after Bastille Day, the newly-created Assernblee nationale organised its own records under the title of "Archives nationales". Soon, papers of differ- ent provenance were gathered with the papers of the Assemblee nationale. Little by little, the repository created in July 1789 became a haven for enor- mous quantities of records deprived of their legitimate owners by the revolu- tionary laws, to an extent that a law of 7 Messidor Year I1 (25 June 1794) de- clared that "the Archives nationales are the central repository for the whole Republic". ' This, of course, was unrealistic in practice, but the theory was established for centralization in the organization of archives, and after that it was never officially repealed. Yet, while the Archives nationales functioned as a "central repository" for the records in Paris, nothing had been done for the records in the dkpartements (the new word for "provinces"). This was the object of the law of 5 Brumaire Year V (26 October 1796) which concentrated the records, in each departement, in the chef-lieu (capital) of the dkpartement: later, these were named Archives de'partementales.

  • PARIS Cushman & Wakefield Global Cities Retail Guide
    PARIS Cushman & Wakefield Global Cities Retail Guide Cushman & Wakefield | Paris | 2019 0 Regarded as the fashion capital of the world, Paris is the retail, administrative and economic capital of France, accounting for near 20% of the French population and 30% of national GDP. Paris is one of the top global cities for tourists, offering many cultural pursuits for visitors. One of Paris’s main growth factors is new luxury hotel openings or re-openings and visitors from new developing countries, which are fuelling the luxury sector. This is shown by certain significant openings and department stores moving up-market. Other recent movements have accentuated the shift upmarket of areas in the Right Bank around Rue Saint-Honoré (40% of openings in 2018), rue du Faubourg Saint-Honoré, and Place Vendôme after the reopening of Louis Vuitton’s flagship in 2017. The Golden Triangle is back on the luxury market with some recent and upcoming openings on the Champs-Elysées and Avenue Montaigne. The accessible-luxury market segment is reaching maturity, and the largest French proponents have expanded abroad to find new growth markets. Other retailers such as Claudie Pierlot and The Kooples have grown opportunistically by consolidating their positions in Paris. Sustained demand from international retailers also reflects the current size of leading mass-market retailers including Primark, Uniqlo, Zara brands or H&M. In the food and beverage sector, a few high-end specialised retailers have enlivened markets in Paris, since Lafayette Gourmet has reopened on boulevard Haussmann, La Grande Épicerie in rue de Passy replacing Franck & Fils department store, and more recently the new concept Eataly in Le Marais.

  • Alternative Media and the Search for Queer Space
    CHAPTER 15 The Politics of Location Alternative Media and the Search for Queer Space he experience of living queer has typically been located at the crossroads of embodiment and disembodiment. We are defined by our corporeal selves, Tour sexual desires and affectional preferences. As David Bell and Jon Binnie write, “[E]roticism is the basis of [our] community” (87). We tell each other to come out because we wish to be visible as queer; we wish to embody a real iden - tity. Simultaneously, we are disembodied by our cultures. We are ordered to disap - pear, to inhabit a closet where we can’t be seen by the straights, the young, and the innocent. We are to ld not to “speak its name,” not to “flaunt it.” Our experience of culture—our sexual citizenship, as it were—is fraught with this uncomfort - able double consciousness. We often engage in commerce, in the arts, in politi - cal activism, precisely to find a visible viable place in our culture, a place where our embodied identities need not feel the erasure of a closeting hegemony. Jeffrey Weeks argues that the sexual citizen “makes a claim to transcend the lim - its of the personal sphere by going public, but the going public is, in a necessary but nevertheless paradoxical move, about protecting the possibilities of private life and private choice.” This way of doing citizenship, Weeks goes on to say, is the only way that “difference can [ever] find a proper home” (37). Let us think about the concept of “home” as it relates to lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgen - der (LGBT) people.

When traveling abroad it is important to remember that packing light will make your trip easier. You should not bring anything that you cannot carry by yourself at one time. Remember that you have to carry your bags through the airport, through customs, into the city, and then on to your housing. This will be a much easier process if you can carry your luggage comfortably. Also remember that anything you forget can be bought in France, so focus on bringing the basics. Leave your valuables behind and only pack clothes you will be comfortable in daily.

  • Marseille, France Overview Introduction
    Marseille, France Overview Introduction Marseille, France, is an ancient city that never ceases to arouse passions. This colorful Mediterranean port has seen the arrival of Greek settlers, Roman conquerors, swashbuckling sailors, religious crusaders, tourists looking for sunny skies and immigrants looking for a home in France's melting pot. The French either love or detest Marseille, but it certainly leaves no one indifferent. Whereas Parisians once snubbed Marseille, many are now heading south on the high-speed TGV train to experience the charm and sun of this thriving cosmopolitan city. Marseille has rhythm and spice, and its inhabitants are fiercely proud of their city. Though twice as big in area as Paris, it is still thought of as a series of small "villages," each with its own unique history and traditions. In fact, unlike in Paris, is it not uncommon to see people in Marseille who live, work and socialize in the same district, which makes the feeling of living in a village all the more present. The more popular villages include Le Panier, La Belle de Mai, Mazargues, Le Roucas Blanc and Saint Giniez. Some are known for their beaches (La Vieille Chapelle), some for the famous artists who were inspired there (Cezanne and Braque in L'Estaque), still others for their charming ports (Le Vallon des Auffes, La Pointe Rouge, Le Vieux Port). With its rich history, diverse culture, authentic character, immense pride and warm people, Marseille will have you lowering your anchor to stay awhile. Highlights Sights—The morning fish market on the Quai des Belges at the Vieux Port; walk or take the tourist train up to the magnificent Basilique Notre Dame de la Garde for views over the whole city; St.
