ONE

The Sofitel ONE is not just a hotel or restaurant. It is a unique experience focused on human interaction and the joy of taste through the promotion and transmission of French gastronomy. The lobby is cadenced by counters that break down the ritual of the meal, along with cooking classes and demonstrations that offer opportunities for friends, family and other guests to socialise.
The movement of culinary vapours inspired our architectural design. Concave and convex screens alternate to soften the space, while their intersections create a sense of dynamism. The concept invites visitors to follow the screens or bounce over them, embarking on their own gastronomic journey.

“La cuisine est un rituel de partage et de convivialité.”

Yannick Alléno

Un élément impalpable présent dans l’air qui transmet souvenirs, paroles, ambiances, l’odeur.
Un élément que l’on produit, que l’on maitrise, que l’on manipule et qui se diffuse.
C’est la matérialisation de l’odeur qui a guidé notre projet.
