Opéra Bastille, public areas — Paris
Technical, equipment and exhibition scenography for the public spaces.
Opened in 1989, the Opéra Bastille is transforming its public spaces under the project “Nouvelle ère, nouvel air”: foyer, lobbies and salons, a new immersive exhibition room, a rooftop panorama, the Studio and the Amphitheatre. The Paris National Opera launched a restricted design competition for a €57m scheme, carried out while the building stays in use.
Scenarchie took part in the project phase as technical, equipment and exhibition scenographer. Its proposals cover the modernisation of the stage machinery and services of the Studio and the Amphitheatre, with silent drives and control compliant with the NF EN 17206 standard.
They also include an immersive exhibition room fitted with projectors and loudspeakers, a panorama with a 70 m² LED screen, and provision for future active acoustics.
