LUMILUXLOFT
When we arrived in the spring of 1994, my roommate Laurent Quesnel and I thought that we would be spending 2 or 3 years in this party and creation place and move on. But... the place was in a shambles and everything had to be done. Larry followed the plan and moved in with his girlfriend of the time. For some reason I decided to stick around and start the transformation of the space. Renovations that not too long ago seemed endless in the eyes of some were finally completed. As the project is finished (for now) often using recycled materials before it became fashionable to do so, I now want to open it for all to see and experience those never-ending nights where good spirits meet , love finds its way and travellers and strangers are always welcome. Naturally if my work inspires you and you have space transformation work to be done or creation projects at large get in touch with me.
