Description
Taiyo Europe was contracted for the design and fabrication of the ETFE cushions, destined to bring additional light into the main lobby of Gare Montaparnasse in Paris. The 3-layer ETFE cushions have a gradient white printing, giving observers the impression of a wavy sail in the wind. Mirror-shine stainless steel side panels amplify the opennes sensation of the volume underneath.
