Sebastien Chapelle, who ran the watches and high-tech sections at colette for 14 years, founded ‘nous’ in 2018, now introduces a new- generation store in prestigious locations.“I always dreamed of offering a unique experience for visitors from all over the world, so they can discover exclusive creations in high-end places”. A new concept that immediately seduced the management of Hotel Barrière Le Fouquet’s Paris which has a strong cultural identity and which is anxious to offer a personalized and authentic experience.
The boutique is nestled into the hotel’s ground floor alcoves with a boudoir atmosphere designed by Jacques Garcia. While keeping the hotel’s initial architectural layout, the interior design developed with Atelier HA revamps the space in the continuity of the Marta bar, connecting the trendiest labels to the hotel’s unique universe. The moiré curtains, walls covered with unusual objects and a purple rug set the tone for an exclusive, intimate space dedicated to contemporary luxury.

About Hotel Barrière Le Fouquet’s Paris
Its name is recognized across the globe - a legendary place set on two prestigious avenues, the most well-known of the two is considered to be one of the most beautiful in the world, les Champs-Elysées. And yet Hôtel Barrière Le Fouquet’s Paris remains a haven of peace, a cocoon tucked away from the hustle and bustle of city life.
The last luxury hotel in Paris to still belong to a French family, it was entirely refurbished by Jaques Garcia and boasts a discreet and elegant design, a garden at the heart of the city, a spa and lightly rooms. Never over the top or gaudy, it features terraces, alcoves and lounges all designed to stop time in its tracks… A near-perfect definition of authentic luxury. The hotel attracts both Parisians and visitors alike thanks to its newly redesigned interiors and exteriors, such as its restaurant Le Joy and its rooftop Le Marta, one of the hottest Paris nightlife spots. September will see the addition of 19 new Rooms and Suites, including four Signature Suites, boasting typical Parisian decor and exceptional views over the Arc de Triomphe and the most beautiful avenue in the world.
