2007- 2009
A classic opera house from the 1930s, the Salle Pleyel underwent a major renovation in 2006. The new Café Pleyel called for a classic yet modern lighting treatment, and received a sculptural arrangement of linear pendant lights which unifies the dining room.
On the outside, the tall windows will be accurately framed with red light, creating on the facade a discreet yet elegant symbol for this noble musical institution.
