Wanderlust — Paris, France

The latest venture from the group behind cult film director David Lynch’s nightclub, Silencio in Paris, is a new multidisciplinary ‘creative space’ in the French capital. Designed by local architecture firm Jacob MacFarlane, Wanderlust comprises a 1,600 sq m terrace (the largest in Paris), an 80-seat open-air cinema, a club, a bar and a restaurant run by celebrated chef Benjamin Darnaud. Located in the city’s 13th arrondissement, it offers health mornings (yoga and pilates), creative workshops, performances, DJ sets and weekly events centred around fashion and film shows. ‘We wanted a contemporary living environment that would abolish the boundaries between creative activities and relaxation spaces,’ says owner Arnaud Frisch.
