Le Taillevent

2 star
Located in the former private mansion of the Duke of Morny, Le Taillevent is one of the most beautiful addresses in Paris, with reminiscences of an aristocratic past, divided between the first floor with its two dining rooms, and the second floor where the private rooms listed in the supplementary inventory of historical monuments are used for private functions. Cut stone, pilasters, pediments, capitals …
The spectacular and somewhat intimidating historical setting, even formal and masculine, were the reason to convince Thierry and Laurent Gardinier to entrust a new interpretation of this rich heritage to the interior architect Yann Montfort.
