The Story

Working closely with Paris design house, Pierre-Yves Rochon, Ulster created an axminster masterpiece to take centre stage in the ballroom at the Intercontinental Paris, Le Grand Hotel.

The hotel, located in the centre of this romantic city, defines historical grandeur and the Opéra ballroom has been at the heart of Parisian society for decades.

Ulster designers worked with Pierre-Yves Rochon to create a bespoke axminster design which mirrored the breathtaking painted ceiling, including the central focal point which houses the extravagant chandelier.

A beautiful marbling effect delicately frames different elements of the intricate design, mimicking the elegant columns surrounding the room. The lavish patterns combine beautiful salmon pinks, pastel blues, pale greens and luscious golds to create a magnificent spectacle fit for this iconic venue.
