Must-See Interior Design Projects by François Champsaur

Must-See Interior Design Projects by François Champsaur – François Champsaur is a French interior designer. One of his specialities is to simultaneously develop two parallel activities: interior design and structural design.

From his earliest projects at the Maison Troisgros in Roanne and Café de l’Alma in Paris, François has displayed his ability to transform any space, considering each and every aspect from an architectural angle and with the finest detail. He intelligently reworks space, playing with light and volume, and compliments this with both elegant and contemporary furniture and fabrics.

His work on Hôtel du Ministère, Paris, was a true example of his talent. Retro touches from the 1950s are mixed with modern design – creating a contemporary and stylish hotel experience. Marble finishes are juxtaposed with wood, and natural tones are combined with vibrant splashes of colour. Warm-toned carpets with geometric prints create an inviting feel to the rooms and suites throughout the hotel.

Combinating classic and contemporary elements. François claims that Hôtel du Ministère is “a colourful hotel, deliberately electrifying and comfortable”.

The 24 rooms within the hotel are modern and cosy spaces. Opening onto luxurious bathrooms decorated in a cabana style in light wood tones, each room offers a different design layout. All are equipped with high-quality bed linen, mattresses and duvets.

Artworks and imposing scupltures adorn the hotel lobby. Coloured lithographs by David Lynch, Barthélémy Toguo and Raymond Pettibon are placed alongside scultpures by Sébastien Kito.

On the ground floor of the hotel, a variety of sitting rooms feature a range of delicate interior design touches, such as the winter garden area which features a clear glass roof that bathes the room in soft natural light.
