Architectural Photographs of the Louis Vuitton Foundation – Light, Glass and Parisian Reflections
A photographic dive into one of Paris’ most iconic architectural spaces, where glass sails, light and sweeping lines create a visual symphony.
The Louis Vuitton Foundation, located in the Bois de Boulogne in Paris, is an architectural masterpiece designed by Frank Gehry. This spectacular building, reminiscent of a sailboat filled with wind, is entirely covered in glass panels that catch the light and blend into the Parisian sky.
Through these architectural photographs, I aimed to reveal the bold lines and transparent layers that define this unique space. The angles invite the viewer to explore a moving structure, where the sweeping glass curves unfold like a fan around the central building.
Some images showcase the luminous interior of the Foundation, revealing the wooden and metallic structures that support the incredible glass skin. Other shots, taken from a distance, place the Foundation within the Parisian urban fabric, with the Eiffel Tower and Beaugrenelle district in the background.
This series reflects my passion for contemporary architectural photography and for capturing the dialogue between light and material. Each image invites viewers to rediscover Paris through reflections, sharp lines, and the sculptural volumes of this iconic cultural landmark.
As a Paris-based architecture photographer, I invite you to experience this open-air artwork through a contemporary photographic lens. A place to see, to explore… and to contemplate.
