The incredible transformation of Pullman Paris Centre-Bercy

Paris, February 22, 2019
Pullman

Spaces and design have been revamped by famed British designer Tom Dixon for a distinctly unique experience.


Sipping cocktails during a screening in the Private Cinema by mk2, taking time for yourself at the Pamper Bar, discovering the arts program at the Artist Playground in the lobby, being inspired by novel business experiences… the new Pullman Paris Centre‑Bercy hotel amazes and surprises its guests by delivering a refreshing experience through its unique approach to hospitality.

With its vibrant personality and standout services, 1 Rue de Libourne has become the place for visitors and locals alike to meet in Paris.


 


JUNCTION AT PULLMAN: A NEW CONCEPT INTRODUCED IN PARIS: LIVE. for real

“Junction at Pullman” - Work & Play
Breaking down barriers, opening up spaces, transforming the lobby into a living environment – it was for all these reasons that Pullman created Junction! This concept was recently introduced in Asia-Pacific, and has now been rolled out for the first time in Europe at Pullman Paris Centre-Bercy. Junction at Pullman is a meeting place for friends, colleagues, and travelers, as well as an ideal location for business meetings. With this concept, Pullman is offering modern, nomadic and connected travelers a relaxed, open and trendy place in which to work & play.

LIVE. for real - Art & Trendy
At Pullman Paris Centre-Bercy, the Junction concept has been extended under the name LIVE. for real. Located in the heart of the bustling, up-and-coming neighborhood of the 12th arrondissement, this space blends seamlessly into the vibrant local entertainment and living art scene.
Directly influenced by venues such as the AccorHotels Arena, the City of Fashion and Design or the Cinémathèque, innovative and unique services are offered in spaces featuring sleek and modern lines. The hotel is alive and, in keeping with Parisian life, a place where guests are the center of all attention.

“The role of design is to improve the world” – Tom Dixon
Tom Dixon was the obvious choice to work on the major overhaul of Pullman Paris Centre-Bercy. His unconventional background, his love for all artistic styles, his fascination with outsider art and cultural encounters all made him the ideal designer for this new multifaceted, surprising, and daring property. These spaces, connected with the world of today, combine unusual and eclectic services that make this location a destination in its own right, a creative and recreative space for Parisians, neighbors, and travelers alike.

INNOVATIVE LIVING SPACES

A FUSION OF PASSION AND COMMITMENT

Live Corner
Sweet treats, bespoke sandwiches, reinterpreted Parisian patisserie and colorful sharing platters are all on the menu of the Live Corner. They can be enjoyed on the premises or to go! The icing on the cake? The Corner also features a concept store, The Box By, offering a curated selection of items and accessories chosen from the fields of design, entertainment, and nomadic working, as well as Tom Dixon brand products.

L’Esprit du 12e
The ground floor restaurant L’Esprit du 12e showcases bistro food. Committed to the quality and savoir-faire of his partners, the Chef has chosen to work with local producers offering regional produce. He reinterprets simple and traditional dishes, always in line with “what’s available at the market”. ‘Wholesome’ and ‘fun’ are the watchwords here.


 


A BLEND OF RELAXATION AND DISCONNECTION
Pamper Bar
The Pamper Bar
 offers express beauty treatments that change from one week to the next. You can enjoy them before a meeting, while awaiting your spa treatment wearing a robe, or as you sip a cocktail. By day or by night, whenever the mood takes you

Wellness Lounge
This exquisite 400m2 wellness center, bathed in sunlight, is waiting to be explored on the first floor. It includes a pool, sauna, steam room, and spa with 4 treatment rooms, and is managed in partnership with the exclusive brand Sothys.
The Wellness Lounge offers healthy food and provides a deep sense of relaxation. It’s not afraid to rewrite the rule book and offers unparalleled sensory experiences in a stimulating and unique setting.

WHERE FICTION MEETS INSPIRATION
Private Cinema
With 19 seats, the Private Cinema by mk2 offers a premium movie-going experience, giving you the opportunity to create a cinema club that reflects your own personality by hosting a private screening. Snacks are available, and even breakfast for early-rising film buffs.

Artist Playground
Open to both established and emerging talents, the Artist Playground initiative puts contemporary art in the spotlight, with collections being rotated every three months. Painters, sculptors, videographers, photographers, illustrators and designers all invite you to explore their world. Art also interacts with travelers and visitors through live performances and workshops.


  


CREATION AND CONCENTRATION
Club Cabins
Modular spaces that can be reserved right up until the last minute, the Club Cabins can host up to 20 people and be reserved for private use according to individual preferences. Whether for a business meeting or a private drink with friends at the end of the day, you decide!

Backstage
In this open space where you can rehearse a speech, perfect a presentation, or unleash your creativity away from hustle and bustle, your brainstorming sessions will never be interrupted! The Backstage can also be turned into a games room at the guests’ request.

Co-Table
At the collaborative and modular Co-Table, guests can work and enjoy a moment of fun – because it converts into a ping‑pong table. Comparing scores after comparing ideas - now there’s a fun way to end the day!

Event Center
A conference facility spanning 1,500m2 with a lush 350m² terrace, the Event Center can be reserved for professional and private events. Totally modular, it can be transformed according to customer preferences. Whether you need to add or remove partitions, adjust the lighting, customize arrangements or simply make the most of its haven of greenery in the very heart of Paris, this event venue with cutting-edge decor makes it all possible.

INTERVIEW WITH TOM DIXON
Renowned British designer Tom Dixon was Creative Director of Habitat for 10 years. In 2002 he founded his own design firm with David Begg. His ambition was to renew British design by combining outsider art with cultural encounters. He has created his own company to design and manufacture his own furniture and lighting collections. His signature style is sleek and streamlined, and his creations bring a breath of fresh air to industrial concepts. They reflect his passion for raw materials, craftsmanship, and industrial design.

Face to face*
What does Pullman mean to you? What was your vision for the project?

We were invited to contribute to this project in order to redesign the guest experience upon arrival at the hotel through the transformation of public areas, including the lobby and reception, as well as working and relaxation spaces. Pullman is a brand driven by a strong heritage, benefiting from an exciting history and which is particularly committed to the future... We hope that this contemporary project will represent another major step in that direction!

 
 


You’re working on a project at Pullman Paris Centre-Bercy, which isn’t just a refurbishment but a complete transformation. Why did you agree to work on this project?

We enjoy working on the design of hotels and we like working in France! Hotels are places for vacations, business, rest and relaxation, conducive to recharging your batteries. For many years, the hotel business has been relatively static and conservative. Today, the sector is undergoing rapid transformations that are breaking with established practices, and are completely shaking up and rewriting the rules for the industry. It is precisely at this moment that design becomes exciting. At Pullman Paris Centre-Bercy, we wanted to offer both travelers and employees a functional, multifaceted and stylish space that works just as well during the day as it does by night. Its totally modular spaces can be altered according to requirements, tastes and events. We focused on the details, with more wooden and natural finishes, using materials such as oak and cork, and a softer color palette.
