Paris can also be understood through its buildings, their façades and the stories they hold. From Haussmann-style flats to private mansions, from artists’ studios to addresses marked by those who have lived there, Varenne explores Paris’s architectural heritage in all its uniqueness.

Architecture, decorative arts, original features, places of historical significance or iconic views: all these details tell the story of a particular way of living in Paris.

Since 1991, we have been turning our attention to these exceptional properties with one firm conviction: heritage is not static. It is preserved, reinvented and, above all, passed on. Discover here our stories, our perspectives and our advice on Parisian heritage and architecture.

When Paris celebrates a 100 years of Art Deco

Art Deco as an expression of discreet and functional refinement.One hundred years ago, Paris gave the world one of its most beautiful gifts: Art Deco. Born from the ashes of the Great War, this movement embodied the return of refinement, comfort and beauty to everyday life. Paris, then in the midst of the ‘Roaring Twenties’, became the scene of an artistic renaissance. Workshops were buzzing, architects were inventing new designs, and craftsmen were transforming metal, glass, wood and lacquer into works of art. A whole French art of living emerged, driven by boldness and exceptional craftsmanship.
