Biologique Recherche opens flagship spa in private Champs-Elysees mansion |

Biologique Recherche opened a flagship spa and training centre at its headquarters in a private mansion on the Champs-Elysees.
The flagship spa contains a reception area with bar and fireplace, a Skin Instant Lab, five beauty cabins, two VIP cabins with private shower rooms, a Haute Couture Apartment and a hands and feet cabin.
The Haute Couture Apartment is dedicated to the Haute Couture care programme, created with made-to-measure products, and visitors access the apartment via a private boudoir, where they are treated to a skin diagnosis and an interview with a Biologique Recherche expert before treatments.
Biologique Recherche has had its Ambassade de la Beaute in the private mansion, which was once home to French politician Edouard Daladier, since 1992.
The renovation of the second part of the private mansion was done by Joanne de Lepinay, who preserved the Parisian spirit of the 19th century building while also paying tribute to the 1970s, the decade when Biologique Recherche was founded.
An elegant porch and Hungarian point wood floors were renovated, and the original mouldings and cornices were preserved. The display cabinet design was inspired by gilded mirrors.
The curved lines of the furniture, the reception desk and the stools, and the decision to use Pierre Paulin seating and Jules Wabbes wall lamps all pay tribute to the 1970s.
Each original piece of furniture was designed by Joanne de Lepinay exclusively for Biologique Recherche, and was custom-made by cabinetmakers and glass artists.
Special attendion was also given to the selection of authentic materials consistent with the brand identity of white, blue and gold. White luminescent onyx is used to showcase the care products in display cabinets with brass accents. Corian and travertine marble also feature, and the walls are covered with silk.
The building also includes fireplaces and art books to recreate an intimate atmosphere.
The Haute Couture cabin in the second floor features a hanging structure with brass moons and hand-blown Murano milk glass balls.
