French interior designer Julie Gauthron collaborates with street artists to give Elegancia’s new Paris hotel, the ‘Exquis’, a vibrant and surrealist edge.

Taking inspiration from the Surrealist movement, Elegancia renew their on-going collaboration with Julie Gauthron for the ‘Hotel Exquis’. Offering a quirky and colourful hideaway in Paris’ trendy 11th arrondissement, the 42 rooms have 8 surrealistic decorative themes. On each floor an artist or a duo of artists have created for each room an art installation in the style of a ‘cadavres exquis’ collage.

Contributing artists:
Monsieur Lui; Thom Thom; Jean Faucheur & Surfil; Fred Chevalier & Severine Metraz; Macay.

The lift shaft, visible from each floor, has been tagged by Spanish street artist, Chanoir.

Materials :
Wallpaper by Timorous Beasties, Cole & Son, Osbourne & Little,

Vintage furniture :
In the breakfast room and reception area, a selection of choice vintage furniture from the 50s and 60s, sourced mainly from the Saint Ouan antiques market in the north of Paris, can be found. In each room, small half-moon tables have been customised as bathroom furniture. Antique sewing machine tables and vintage television stands have been transformed in to desks and sink stands.

The Hotel Exquis brings a colourful, whimsical and unexpected air to the heart of the 11th arrondissement. Julie Gauthron’s original and imaginative signature style wins again.
