Le Fournil, Nina Métayer

Design and follow-up of Nina Métayer's first shop in La Rochelle.

La Rochelle, FRANCE
THE CONCEPT

Both a production atelier and a gourmet destination, the architectural, merchandising and graphic design aims to strike the right balance between the expression of the profession, by preserving the site’s historic production tools, and contemporary accessibility, to the delight of sweet tooths.

Because Nina Metayer makes it a point of honour to value her teams, a window has been created so that all visitors have a clear view of the teams hard at work preparing cakes that are as beautiful as they are delicious…
Hanging proudly above the window, old utensils belonging to Nina’s family, adding that extra touch of soul so dear to Nina Metayer.
It’s a feast for the eyes, but also for the taste buds!
