Wallpaper* Design Awards 2006: Le Petit Moulin, Pa 

Christian Lacroix’s commission to design the Hotel du Petit Moulin was his childhood dream come true. Tucked away in the Marais district, the façade of this former boulangerie has remained untouched. Inside, however, the reception’s original timbered ceilings are now complemented by shimmering fabrics and illustrations by Lacroix; a 17th-century wooden staircase leads to the bar, with bright 1960s armchairs; and in the lift, a rococo scene sets the tone for the 17 individually-designed rooms.
