Bateau Phare
Floating venue
Paris 13th2020
A legendary spot of Paris nightlife, the Bateau Phare is reborn: a concert hall on the lower deck, a restaurant on the middle deck and a bar on the upper deck.
The space has been reconfigured, more open to the sky and the Seine, airier and more refined. The original lines are revealed by a new shade of colour. To improve stability, 180 tonnes of ballast were placed in the hold, and the project was entirely reworked to achieve regulatory compliance.
A former North Sea lightship without an engine, it will long remain a Paris landmark.
