In this exclusive video produced by Dezeen, French architect Maxime d'Angeac reveals how his redesign of the historic Orient Express train ? its first update in almost a century ? aims to create "a new embassy of French luxury".

Launching in 2025, the interiors of the train cars were revealed in an immersive virtual reality (VR) exhibition called Orient Express Revelation, displayed during Paris art week between 17 to 21 October 2022.

The first Orient Express train was designed by Belgian civil engineer Georges Nagelmackers 140 years ago. Since then, the train received its first and only redesign in 1924, making D'Angeac's reinterpretation the first in almost 100 years.
