  • Press Release DPA New Longchamp Racecourse
    Dominique Perrault Architect NEW LONGCHAMP RACECOURSE press contact for Dominique Perrault: Charlotte Jean [email protected] DOMINIQUE PERRAULT ARCHITECTURE 6, rue Bouvier 75011 Paris, France +33 (0)1 44 06 00 00 www.perraultarchitecture.com www.dpa-x.com LE NOUVEAU LONGCHAMP, PARIS, 2011-2017 DOMINIQUE PERRAULT ARCHITECT Aerial view Visuel disponible / Picture available for press use © Dominique Perrault Architecte / L’autre Image / Adagp 2 THE NEW LONGCHAMP RACECOURSE The renewal of the Longchamp racecourse should ensure that it maintains its place in both the Grand Paris and on the international scene of the world’s major racecourses. Such an ambitious goal must be guided not only by an emblematic architectural project that can be adapted to future needs, but also a landscape project that transfigures the area, highlighting the built legacy, the historical heritage of the racecourse, and especially the green heritage of the Bois de Bou- logne, which originated in the composition designed by Alphand in the 19th century. The race for the Prix de l’Arc de Triomphe is the highpoint of the life of the racecourse. Therefore, the main challenge of this project is for it to be able to host this event, which draws up to 60,000 spec- tators, under exceptional conditions, while also welcoming a much smaller crowd on ordinary racing days. This is why the project proposes to deconstruct all the stands dating from the 1960s and to replace them with only one stand, which is both more compact and more functional. Buildings housing support services for the horse races, which are currently scattered around the site, will also be demolished and rebuilt in the form of pavilions.

This material is exclusively prepared for Ringle Customers [Summary in English] I. Longchamp From its origins as a tobacco accessory store launched in 1948, Longchamp has grown into a global luxury brand on the strength of its fine leather craftsmanship and high quality. • In 1948, Jean Cassegrain was running Au Sultan, a tobacco store in Paris. U.S. soldiers stationed there after WWII especially loved Au Sultan’s luxurious tobacco pipes, which were made with high-quality leather and attention to detail. As Cassegrain’s customers began to grow in number, he established a brand which he named Longchamp after a famous horse-racing track in Paris. • Cassegrain sensed that as travel became more and more accessible to the general public, so would the demand for luxury goods. He diversified the range of leather products he offered and began to sell them on luxury cruise ships. When the age of air travel arrived and Orly airport opened in Paris, he opened a Longchamp store in the terminal and began selling leather travel goods. • Longchamp became so popular that by the 1960s, its products were being sold in over 100 countries around the world.
