From the architect. Several Ideas, one intention.The principal stake of the project is to design a building to Dior?s image.The first natural approach is to gather the values which build Dior?s identity:  France, Paris, Versailles, The ?Haute Couture?, The elegance, the refinement, The excellence, the search for perfection, The know-how, the tradition, the culture, The creativity, the desire of innovation and delight, The nobility, the luxury, the beauty. Haute Couture and Architecture can meet around these values. From this combination, a duality emerges, The Haute-Couture is linked to fashion, the ephemeral, and constantly needs to renew itself.
Sketch

Architecture transcends fashions and its image needs to outlive time that goes by and continue to represent de Dior spirit in a lasting manner.
