The head office of the Réunion des Musées Nationaux is located in the 12th arrondissement of Paris. The building has a triangular shape, and its light-frame cladding alternates the smooth white of the frosted glass with the light grey of the PAPYRUS facings (crumpled paper look).
Noteworthy: this cladding continues on top of the building (over-roofing), perfectly illustrating the concepts of building envelope or fifth façade.
