Yves Saint Laurent museum — Paris
Full audiovisual project management, from preliminary design to acceptance.
Housed in the private mansion at 5 avenue Marceau, the Musée Yves Saint Laurent has had all of its audiovisual equipment renewed. The whole challenge lay in a single constraint: modernising every installation without touching the architectural and aesthetic integrity of the place.
Hence a bespoke furniture design programme, conceived so that every screen, every loudspeaker and every control position disappears into the interior architecture. The sound approach turns space into a narrative element: in the exhibition rooms, loudspeakers integrated into the technical ceiling are driven independently to deliver immersive content. The video room has a 163-inch LED wall at 3,840 × 2,160 pixels, 0.93 mm pitch, in cold technology for visitor comfort.
Scenarchie carried out a full project management assignment, from preliminary design through to handover of the installations. The study also covered the audiovisual equipment of the internal conference and meeting rooms, along with the digital infrastructure: interconnection of the rooms through a high-capacity fibre-optic network for simultaneous distribution of audio and video signals.
