“ These wonderful blond wood floors capture that old meets new experience”
NAPOLEON III “Emperor Napoleon the Third, or Napoleon Trois, really changed the face of the Paris we know today. Before he came along, it was a very medieval city, dark and quite dirty, so he hired Haussmann, an extraordinary architect of the period, to come in and redesign the city. And the great neoclassical buildings that we see today are really Haussmann’s invention. It is the new Paris, the beauty of Paris, that we love the world over. But one of the great signatures of Haussmann were the extraordinary floors that he added. It today is the real signature of Parisian-style. These wonderful blond wood floors that really capture that old meets new experience. It’s desaturated, yet it has a little color; and that color lets us build upon it anything we want to.”
