La Main, the new Parisian HQ of LVMH Métiers d’Art, is a building steeped in craft traditions. It is the main base of an organisation whose mission it is to elevate, support and open up the world of craftsmanship to all. Located a stone’s throw from the Arts-et-Métiers district in the 2nd arrondissement, it is also an artfully reimagined heritage building of a craft-rich era, which served in the past as the home of a printer and then a textile maker. ‘We selected Rue Réaumur for its association with design and craftsmanship,’ says LVMH Métiers d’Art CEO Matteo de Rosa. ‘By establishing ourselves here, we aim to invite the community to explore and recognise the exceptional materials and unparalleled expertise that are foundational to the luxury industry’s manufacturing prowess.’
