Eataly

Paris

In the heart of the Marais district, Eataly has taken up residence in the former Menier chocolate workshop, renovated by DATA Architectes. This hybrid market invites visitors to explore and savor high-quality Italian products. A unique venue, it strengthens the group’s lifestyle approach, blending tradition and modernity in a historic setting. Organized around an iconic central courtyard, the sales space stands out for its fluid layout, made possible by the absence of supporting columns. The architecture revitalizes the façade and reintegrates a former private passageway as a promenade. The area has been reimagined as a cohesive whole, now seamlessly connecting Eataly, BHV Marais, and the Lafayette Anticipations Foundation. To enhance this connection, Scottish artist Martin Boyce has created three original works to complement the building’s courtyards and glass roof.
