ARCHITECTURAL MARVEL OF THE MONTH
 
Europe Edition
 

Foundation Louis Vuitton
 
Architect Frank Gehry designed the Foundation Louis Vuitton museum to embody the client's dedication to art and culture through modern architecture. The building consists of white blocks called "icebergs," covered in fiber-reinforced concrete, and surrounded by twelve large glass "sails" supported by wooden beams. These sails provide transparency and a sense of movement. The modular auditorium design offers a versatile space for unique experiences and artistic encounters for visitors.

The Fondation Louis Vuitton heralds an exciting new cultural era for Paris, introducing a space dedicated to art, particularly contemporary art. It serves as a hub for meaningful interactions between artists and visitors from Paris, France, and around the world. By fostering spontaneous dialogue, the new Fondation aims to evoke both emotion and contemplation.
 
Image item
 
This distinctive cultural initiative is unique because the Fondation is privately funded, made possible through the corporate patronage of LVMH and its companies, especially Louis Vuitton. It reflects the values shared by LVMH's employees and shareholders. The Fondation transcends the ephemeral present by generating optimistic momentum and embodying a passion for artistic freedom, making it a dream realized. The LVMH Group houses, particularly Louis Vuitton, have always excelled through their exceptional creations, contributing to an art de vivre rooted in the humanist tradition.
